Guns Go Bang! - C&C

[Vtec44]

Dammit... Where'd the pictures go? Why does there always have to be some asshat out there who ruins the fun for the rest of us? If you don't like them, just shut your goddamn mouth and don't look at them.

I dont like maternity photos, babies or weddings but you don't see me bitching every time a thread with one of those pops up???

hahahaha.... since cars kill more people than guns annually. I will derail threads that have cars in them!!!



j/k of course....

Hmmm, not seeing anny photos here?? I'll try another thread.

Isn't ANY photo work ANYONE posts deep down inside and ego post????? After all, this is a PHOTOGRAPHY forum...

 

[mishele]

lol Yes but no.....car and gun threads always end up some sort of competition. Oh I have a bigger gun or a faster car or I live in a better country....lol

Get over it people! These are all opinions and no one is going to have there mind changed over an internet forum! I dont like drunk drivers so every drunk driver should never be able to drive again ,or thieves they should have to have there fingers cut off, Personally if some moron breaks in my house at night I plan on shooting him to protect my family but hey thats just me. Others would rather get robbed or rapped... Seriously Im proud to live in America where I can defend myself, but does that make me better or right? No! Its what you are accustomed to, how you were raised , and the religion you believe in that drives these feelings...Completely agree.Now let's drop it.Lets move on...

Agreed.Now let's drop it.

Honestly, there would be no problems with the gun threads if the people who don't like them just stayed out of them.

Cars aren't particularly interesting to me (jeeps are different, lol - but pictures of jeeps I still find boring) - I usually don't even bother posting (or even opening, if the title lets you know there's cars inside) in them.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but some people just insist on making sure that everybody else knows that they don't like 'it'. All I'm saying is that it always seems to be the 'anti-gun' people who start the derailment of gun threads. If the picture is boring, or just looks like a snapshot - who cares? I don't understand why people can't just say to themselves 'yawn. another gun.', then move on if it's not something you're into.


If you don't like guns, and "Guns go Bang!" wasn't a big enough hint when you see a thread - just hit the back button if you open it and see 'yet another' gun thread. That's what I do to any car threads I accidentally open.

Honestly, that is not the problem. People should be able to critique an image and leave the political bullsh!t out of it.

It would have probably gone wrong eventually, but let's look at the first response:

oh I'm jealous of you americans. All I can have are hunting rifles.

Is that a critique of the images, or Political Bait?


I don't care for guns. But I can say Bynx posted a nice focus stacked image of one.

I shot so many bullets yesterday my hand hurts.

No really... I did. And it does.

In the soft part between your thumb and pointer finger.

It's sore.

That little LCP doesn't play nice after a while, I'll tell ya what.

...I didn't actually read through any of the thread. I saw an emerging "DOWN WITH GUNS!" argument happening and assumed this thread went the way of most firearm threads, with some people giving statistics as to why we should all get them taken away... people giving statistics as to why we shouldn't, a handful of people scolding the OP for even TAKING pictures of a firearm going off because it could be "dangerous"... and... people who own firearms sharing stories and generally trying to lighten the mood by ignoring the naysayers and chatting about their own collection... so I thought I'd share my own.

Am I off at all?

I'm assuming I'm off on at least ONE point... mostly because I can't even SEE the pictures....

WHERE ARE THE PICTURES?! I WANNA SEEEEEE!!!! ​

I just see it as an opening line of interest between one person interested in guns to another who has shown interest in them by posting photos of them. Yes we can just talk about the photos and, as a photo site, that is normally our biggest point of interest. But we've always had conversations about the content of our photos in so much as sharing mutual interests.

I don't see how that quoted post is in any way a political bait unless the person reading is already wanting an excuse just to jump in and fight out the gun debate.
