women with guns are hot!



This obviously belongs in SC. In the Bonfire women with *boobies* are hot. Boobies and guns....hell, that's too hot for dz.com, I'm afraid.

History lesson -

Once upon a time there was a forum on dropzone.com that was named "Talkback." At one point, those people who love to, using the term loosely, "argue" about politics, guns and religion (PGR) seemed to be taking over the forum from those who wanted to post about sex, boobies, alcohol, pets, and other non-PGR, non-skydiving related things.

One day, after much whining from several of his green minions (who were tired of policing those who can't "argue" about PGR without resorting to personal attacks), His Royal Redness got fed up and shut it down. Oh, the inhumanity! Yes, it was a dark, dark day in dz.com land.

The other "topical" forums (and the PM inboxes of HH and the green ones) were flooded with indignant postings from both camps. After a few days and much discussion in the Dungeon (that's where the green ones hang out and talk shit about those who aren't green), HH decided it was time to create separate (but equal!) forums - one for those who prefer their non-skydiving related forum activities to be free from the taint of PGR and personal attacks and one for those who prefer their non-skydiving related forum activities to be free from the taint of sex, alcohol, pets, boobies, links to funny websites, and copy/pasted emails and photoshopped pictures.

And thus, Speaker's Corner and The Bonfire arose from the ashes of Talkback to become what they are today.

- but.... shhhhhhhhhhhh! (whisper) there is some mixing...... look above. There are posts (and even pictures) of guns here in the bonfire, cuz if you link it with "hot chicks" or "boobies" or (ok... not hugs... that's just odd) then it can stay here in the bonfire. (but if you just post the gun itself... then it's speakers)

the "Speakers Corner" is where a bunch of politically opinionated people hang out arguing with each other and the only thing they can agree on, is to disagree with each other.

Now if you will excuse me, I think I need to go disagree with someone. :ph34r:



:D:D:D

And that's part of its charm.

In SC there will always be someone who will intellectually challenge you ... or challenge your patience,:)

I've never gone in Speakers Corner



Then someone else stole your user-ID and posted there under your name.


In her defense, those threads MAY have started in the bonfire and been moved to SC.


They must have started in Bonfire because Ive never gone in there much less posted. :)
