Title: Donald Trump, JR.
Post by: Fly320s on March 23, 2017, 06:52:11 AM
I had no idea he is such a big gun nut and shooter.  I had heard that he was pro-gun, but he is also a serious shooter and hunter.

Here is an article about him that lists all the shooting, hunting, and fishing forums where he is a member.  There are probably more, but this is impressive enough.  Try to ignore the leftist, foaming-at-the-mouth hatred.

Maybe we should invite him to our little piece of heaven.

Supposedly that's what influenced Trump Sr to ardently support the 2nd amendment.

So which one of The High Roads is he on?

I bet all those forums are getting massive guest hits after the article.  :laugh:

And probably not the kind of hits we'd want. We'll probably see a lot of posts from armchair commandos posted all over the web.

Heh.  I'm a member on a large number of the forums listed.  I was surprised to see castboolits, specialty-pistols, saubier, and stickbow on the list.  I thought those were kind of obscure to the typical gun or archery enthusiast.

I made the mistake of reading some of the comments. Man, that Deadspin is worse than Salon and Dailykos combined.

I'm still waiting for the Tim Marchman- Tim Kennedy MMA fight, with Ranger-Up vs the Deadspin staff undercard...

Deadspin is literally cancer.

One of the largest echo chambers on the internet.

FTFY.  Gawker is no more. =D

They're now part of Gizmodo Media Group, which is owned by Univision.

Stickbow and castboolits are 2 of my old haunts. Haven't been on either in ages. As far as obscure archery forums go Tradgang.com is out there.

Is Tradgang still around?  I thought it went belly up.

I haven't logged in a while so it may have. Last time I looked in I didn't recognize anyone and my log in no longer lexisted.

ETA:Yup, still there.

ok.  One of the traditional archery sites closed its doors, but I forget the exact name.  All I recall is it had Trad or Traditional in the name.

Our boy isn’t just a casual forum haunt, though. Don Jr.—or someone doing a convincing and thorough impersonation of him—is a registered member of at least 25 different gun, bow, hunting, and fishing enthusiast forums...

(List follows.)

What a huge list of sites he's supposedly  on!

Even being retired, I cut back tremendously on the number of sites I hit regularly.

Wow!

What a time sink!

No kidding.

Interesting.   Very little intersection with the gun forum world I pay attentions to.  A couple places I stick my head in sometimes.

Not here, that I could see.   There is a djtjr at TFL (https://thefiringline.com/forums/member.php?u=95207).  Joined 2009, last poked his head in in 2014, zero posts.

I wonder how they got a list of every one of these sites that he is registered on? And I wonder how many he is even active in.
I got a headache trying to read through that whole article. [barf]

If you had essentially unlimited resources, (to pay for decent data service pretty much everywhere) and a lot of travel downtime, (being flown or driven somewhere) the only thing web surfing would really be cutting into is book reading or phone chatting time.

I believe both sons are avid hunters. We can probably thank them for The Donald's epiphany on the Second Amendment.

Now, if we can just get past Obamacare Lite so he can get to work on national carry reciprocity ...

If you were to look at the full list of forums I'm a member of, it might seem I do nothing but post to web forums.  However, there are many I just lurk on or haven't touched in years.  I'm only active on 2-3 forums these days.  Active meaning I post more than once a month.

Same here. Some forums are intermittent information sources for me where I basically lurk and just do an occasional search for something. Often they require you to create an account to get full site and search access. Then there's the forums like 1911 and various muzzloader forums where I used to post, but haven't in many years.

I'm on a Ford truck forum where I posted a bunch right when I got my 2008 truck, then not again until last year when I got my 2016 truck.

I'm even a member of Arborist.com.   I joined many years ago when I had a question about my pin oak.  (It still died...)
