I was banned immediately for saying "no guns"

Please explain the rules here. I am anxious, like so many American citizens supporting the movement, to help, and not see it go down in flames, or bloodshed.

Gun chat.

What guns do you own? Comments?

Considering Leftist have used firearms to kill 100 million people and counting worldwide keeping them away from guns isn't a bad idea.

Ah, I thought that might be the case. Thank you.

Are they discussing guns in general or guns in connection with OWS?

[-] 1 points by ritacon (29) 13 years ago

They were talking about what kind of g-words they had.

I see. If it's not specific to OWS it's probably not a problem. Sure doesn't explain why they banned you, though. Puzzling.

I had just entered the room -- first time on the site -- and it sounded to me like they were talking about using them. But I was so upset to hear it, and it was so chaotic in there, all I could do was say "NO GUNS" three times in a row (maybe that's why). Then, poof, conversation vanished, and "you are banned."
