    ...turns out, it's being sponsored in part by American Third Position, a white supremacist political party with a chairman who wants to deport all non-white immigrants.

    Would you like to know more?

    Hey, the last time I heard about one of these "______ Appreciation Day" things, it was Chik Fil A, and people were crapping themselves about it.

    Are you making that up?

    Because I certainly agree that it's very weird indeed that all of you "Liberals" have heard of this thing but "GunForge" has not.

    Makes me wonder what kind of game you guys are playing. :chris:

    Prior to this thread, the only mention of it I had seen was on my Facebook feed.


    In posts by some of my liberal friends.

    strangely enough, that was the only mention of it I've seen on FB-from an anti gun fanatic.

    I've always noticed that on Facebook. Liberals in march step, probably doing it goose step style. Same spin/talking point/bullshit at the exact same time. They don't fuck around when they've been issued marching orders.

    Good sheeple. Baaaaa!

    Yeah, but I see the same thing from a lot of my conservative friends, too. I've had to "correct" some of their disinformation before by providing links. Mostly, they appreciate the info and I can recall only a couple of them who seemed offended by the "correction".

    OTOH, a goodly number of my liberal friends get pissed off when they're shown accurate information that conflicts with what they've been "told". :lol:

    I block/delete a lot of people on facebook, but I bet that my ban list runs about 70/30 in favor of God fearin' conservatives. The Chik Fil A fiasco was basically Krystal Nacht on my friends list. :bergman:

    I've got mostly righties on my list of hundreds. There are only two that tend to go nuts every now and then and spam the shit out of everything. And they've never posted the same thing at the same time.

    The liberals, on the other hand; I don't have that many, but they always post the exact same propaganda within hours of each other.

    I'm kind of bummed out about losing my favorite parasite though. She's a fucking loon that rants about Christians to the point that the non-thiest group in town decided to kick her out. Once she claimed that the world would be a much more tolerant place if only Christians were extinct.

    She couldn't see the irony in her statement at all.

    She started a post one day about "Everyone knows I'm the most tolerant person around". I couldn't let that one go. I said "What? Do you seriously think you're a tolerant person?". She deleted the comment immediately and unfriended.

    Typical goddamn liberal twat. Free speech is anything that doesn't offend them.

    Me neither. These left wing blogs are losing their touch.
