I am newer, but have noticed a lot of public infighting in this forum. Just my observation.

One who uses the Bible to attack/defame others' characters instead of as a guide to proper living. These people tend to be depressingly ignorant of anything else except the Bible and behavior as expected by the religious.
I agree with Doug!G9MMOS,
To answer your question you needonly look at your gathering in Taylor for the answer.
We'relike family here, sometimes we argue and fight, BUT WE ALWAYS STAND TOGETHER AGAINST THE ENEMY!

I've been around these guys and galsonline and at gatherings going into my third year of active OC'ing. Doug is correct. This leads me to believe that, since almost all here are so nice in person, a lot ofposts that seem "negative" really need to be given a lot of benefit of a positive assumption. The problem with the written word is that you have no facial or body language or tone of voiceto convey the senses of humor, irony, witty sarcasm, etc. Of course, it always helps if the writer uses emoticons ("smileys"), so there's a suggestion for many of you!
Understood, the point is to disagree in a respectful way. If we all want the same thing ( OC & 2A rights ) that should be easy correct? "We the people" need to remember many from the "other side of the issue" peak in on us to see what we are doing. They can't read PM's, now can they?:?How to say this......... ummmmmmmm....
If we all "got along" we would have the Borg collective... or, said another way, we would have what the Socialists want. "We the people" would be "us the anthill".
Screw that!:cuss:
I agree that intelligent adults disagree in a respectful manner.

Well we are in an OC forum, so I guess "we" would be OCers .This poll is exceedingly vague. Who is "we", and on which topic are you querying the level of perceived unity?

To me, it seems like the bickering has increased ten fold in like the last 6 months to a year. I don't remember it being this bad a year ago.
Thought :Good or bad = just a doll = Pepito bismol doll = role model = When I grow up I want to LOOK just like her ?taxwhat - is this just a random thought or are you implying something there?:question: I bring it up do to the use of quoted text.
