We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :)
Please help by posting all issues here.
The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.
As we discussed on the phone today, I was NOT aware of the issue. Between my law practice and the crap-storm we have been fighting here in Virginia, I have been remiss in my moderation duties. The other moderators we have also are active in Virginia's fight and the issue spiraled until I was...
Ok. Here is where we are:

I make it a point to allow any user to request personally identifying information (especially very specific example of such) to be redacted if they want it to be. Even if they post it themselves.
Let's all try and be civil, even to users you don't agree with.
That rule is focused on the issues surrounding long gun open carry. But we don't ban mere discussion of rifle events, etc, which many of us engage in and enjoy. Thanks for supporting youth shooting!
“May I purchase a firearm if I have a green card?”
Some version of this question shows up in my email almost every week.
It is hardly surprising since there is a great deal of confusion concerning green card holders and firearms.
Those who reach out to me are roughly divided into two groups...

I fully answer the question on...
