Originally I was on NRA's Guntalk BBS. People there ranged from conservative to
VERY conservative, with a few libertarians sprinkled in. But they were a
respectful group who by and large accepted me even with my outspoken left and
gay politics. We had a lot of really interesting conversations and I learned
how to talk with conservatives in a positive and I hope mutually informative
manner. I'd also be happy to find another mainstream (meaning mostly
conservative) gun rights email list where people were respectful and actually
LISTENED to people of strongly differing viewpoints, but things may have gone
too far downhill in our country since Guntalk (it was closed down in the
mid-1990s) for anything like it to exist now.

Was there any issue in particular that you wanted to talk about?

Hi Michelle here aka safoocat and guntalk was my list if you mean the one
on yahoo. Yes one day I just couldn't take it anymore so shut it down.
Maybe I should have left it alone and just gone no mail but I couldn't stand
seeing a list I loved being used as a trumpet for people whose views I despised.

I did start a new list gunchat but it's basically asleep but there are a few
members and you're welcome to join it a post something but I can't guarantee
anyone will respond.
