I haven't heard from him for some time. Not since I was last banned from this forum. Does anyone know what happened?

I've been asking myself the same question, actually... He's been gone for quite some time now.

Anyone sent him a TG? I'm assuming he's on holidays...I hope he returns to NS!

I was wondering that too.
I was hoping he was just on vacation. I dont think I've seen him in two weeks.
Now I bet he'll return to 50 TGs.

My guess is that after a protracted absence, he'll show up claiming to be in Tikrit or something.

That's his usual modus operandi.

I've never heard of him claiming to be in Iraq before.

You could argue the gun-crazed part, but while he may describe himself as a christian fundamentalist, most others would not.

Sorry, you're right - that was the standard claim of My Gun Not Yours, WL's original nation.

He is a christian fundamentalist. He just have the decency to not push his religious views unless asked for them. If only other christian fundamentalists had this laissez faire attitude.

He is, however, gun crazed.

You say "gun crazed" like it's a bad thing.

I was busy helping a Muslim friend deal with some legal issues...all turned out well...and then I was in a horrendous wreck...things are getting better. I hope to be on here more as time goes on. When was the last time anyone heard from WL, Oksana, and Peechie? No clues that they were leaving...just poof?

I do consider it a bad thing, but I have the laissez faire attitude. If you want to be gun crazed, go ahead. :)

I was merely stating that there is no doubt in my mind that WL is gun crazed.

People can be deceiving. My husband was Marine and he rattles off all kinds of stuff about this gun and that rifle. :rolleyes: The closest thing to a weapon that we have in our home, though, are the kitchen knives and a pack of ankle biting dogs.

glad everything turned out ok, and that you're back :)
as for the others, i don't know... i think peechie came back for just a couple of posts a few weeks back - isn't she moving house or something?



edit: might be getting confused with texaspudlian (spelling?) who i think was moving house. or maybe not... to be honest my memory doesn't work that well :p

Peechland was in the process of moving all the way across the USA. She's checked in once or twice, but I haven't heard from her lately.

Hmmm. Weird. He has never come across to me as a particularly devout Christian, nor a fundamentalist. And his views on guns have actually swayed my own a bit, to the point where I don't support registration:)

Isn't his MY GUN NOT YOURS persona his trolling puppet? As WL, he's only ever come across as fairly RL.

About the christian angle: he said so himself. I'm not saying it's a bad thing. Whatever faith works for you and all that. Especially when the poster is not pushing it like WL does.

About the gun angle: sure he has some pretty convincing arguments about gun control and all that. But I do find his view that people who refuse medical treatment should be shot in the head "as it is a less painfull way to die" a bit on the crazy side.

He goes off the deep end from time to time, for sure. I just ignore him when he gets unreasonable:)

She's now completely moved. She's at a new job (second day of employment with this new company) and still looking for a decent home. She'll be back on soon i'm sure. I'll let her know that she's missed though. She'll like that. Unless she's not missed and then i won't tell her a thing.

she is indeed missed - at least by me

That's his usual modus operandi.

Thats a stupid statement.

I've never heard him make a claim he wasnt able to back up. I've always found him to be a straight shooter. And not full of shit like a mutitude of others around here.

Exactly.

Kind of makes you wonder what people will be saying about you if you are gone for a while, doesn't it?

I agree. He doesn't come off as a bullshitter.

There was a series of gun rights debates raging when I first arrived here at NS. Since that's a subject dear to my heart, and possibly the only topic which can tempt me to loss of anger control, I looked around to see who my new friends and allies might be before I rolled up my sleeves and entered the fray. WL's writing style, factual content, and generally self-controlled attitude elevated him above most of the debaters in my view.

I thought he always added something to any topic he posted on and I liked his style. He's a straight shooter and I hope he returns, this place is better with him than without.

No, I haven't gone overseas.

I've been changing jobs. I'll still be in the DC Metro area, but my job will be even more relaxed (if you can imagine one more relaxed than one that allowed me to post on NS all the time).

I've been peeved by the London bombings, and even more peeved when hearing any politically correct opposition to profiling, or opposition to cracking down on radical Islam. I knew I would hear that sort of thing on NS, so I've been lurking and not posting - I didn't want to get involved in any flame wars (you know, sometimes it's best to sit on the bench for a bit and let other people throw turds at each other).

So, I'll be a bit calmer soon, and will resume posting.
