Do not deviate from the issue, I condemn the behavior, he apparently not.
My criticism was more because he just starting categorizing people with some values as tree huggers and I mentioned that I have a name for those that approve that kind of behavior.

All I can say is thank goodness for diversity

What rules are being broken? The Google ad sense rules prohibit showing people getting injured/killed etc. Whatever you think of that image, that certainly isn't happening from the pics I'm looking at.

and that is your privilege in this country

just as it is his right to have his opinion...

you'd be doing your nut if i stopped you having your say just because someone else objects to it i would imagine..

whether it is appropriate in whatever circles you mix in is another question altogether and beyond the scope of the guidelines here.

I think anyone with common sense would know young children should be allowed to have their innocence intact without stupid parents allowing this to happen. That sends the wrong message about santa,christmas to young kids.

Having had both Santa and the Easter Bunny at our gun club, yearly, I can say with some experience, that kids who are still innocent enough to believe in Santa etc, couldn't care less about mum and dads hobby once the presents or choc eggs come out. Or even before that, they don't understand it and would rather play with what is current for their age group.


I don't enjoy my fathers hobby, reading, he doesn't enjoy his fathers hobby, rugby league. You can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink. IN this instance you are trying to compare our culture to someone else's.

I hear what your saying mate,different cultures and such. I guess the difference for me is there is no way I would want my 5 and 8 year old daughters sitting on santas lap with him holding an AK47. That is not the message I want to send to my kids,but horses for courses I guess.

Well if a person that get upset by the image is called a tree hugger then the forum rules should allow that person call the other frano redneck ignorant?
No, I o not think so, calling names it is not the way IMO

I think the term you're looking for is moral high ground not going as low as the orhers

Isn't that the point of a forum, to give ones opinion?
Not to only voice approval if threads you agree with?
