    Maybe we could have a Political sub-forum like XDTalk has and require a certain number of post to participate... they use 250 posts. We could use 1,000.

    Of course, participation is OPTIONAL!

      Is it still a freedom of speech issue if we say "If you want to talk politics, do it HERE and not in other threads"?

      Yeah, like anyone would pay attention to that.

        On the assumption that the name "KahrTalk" was an indication of the purpose of this board, I came here to learn about and talk about guns, primarily my Kahr.

        While it is inevitable and often useful for some non-Kahr topics to come up in related discussions among people who have become acquainted here, I would like to suggest that talking about Kahrs is still the best thing for us to do here.

        Compared to a few other boards that I visit from time to time, KahrTalk has a "small town" feel that seems more civil and more friendly than the others. It would be a shame to let politically-induced tempers disrupt that, especially among a group who otherwise seem to get along very nicely.

        There are plenty of other places where people can go to discuss and yell about politics. Let's not let politics disturb the peace of our nice little town.

          I'm putting you in for Sainthood QuercusMax. Bully of a grand idea.

          Guns in general, kahrs a lot, with a little life goes on mixed in is a great recipe.

          Hard to say gun without politics rearing it's ugly head and in some cases that's not a bad thing to discuss but politics in general, not so much.

            I agree 100% with QuercusMax.

            If we really need to bring politics into this forum, it should be with the intent of protecting our second amendment rights.

              Those who would push their agendas will say that it's all inter-related and that we can't JUST protect those rights without also saying all of the other things they want to say about politics.

                Thinking about it, asking the question (political discusions, yea or nay?) is kind of after the fact.


                Haven't there already been a number of political discussions held on this forum? Has this hurt the forum in any way? Unfortunately (or fortunately for some ), I am not able to get on the forum as frequently as I would like so am not aware of any previous issues as a result of a political discussion. From what I have seen, most of the discussion has been OK. Then again, I may have missed some big blowout.

                Have we previously suffered from political discussion?
