Bruce, I am inclined to allow things to go a bit further, as a moderator my standards are:

1. Personnel attacks I will monitor closely and probably give a warning.

2. I don't mind the light joke, and have contributed to some of them, but they easily get out of hand.

3. Talking Nazi on the forum invariably leads to hot tempers, so unless you keep it to Nazi era item talk, specifically holsters and Lugers, you'll get the topic closed or deleted.

4. Sexual kidding to a very small degree I don't have a problem with, (well actually I don't mind kidding like that), but in a "public" place like this, it had better be very small degree, some of the other moderators won't agree with that degree.

5. There is no such thing as First Amendment rights on a private forum, it just doesn't exist, as the First Amendment Right deals with gov't or as is commonly seen, newspapers, TV etc., and they get controlled by gov't rules since that is how our society works. This is privately funded by John Dunkle and even if he took ads and other payment, it is a private forum and 1st Amendment rights do not apply.
