Mailing List Logs for ShadowRN

Okay, guys, I'd like to make a request of all of you, especially you folks
in the gun control discussion:

Can we please stop it now?

It doesn't have a thing to do with Shadowrun. It does nothing but piss
both sides off. It has nothing to do with Shadowrun. As has already
happened, it devolves into nothing but name-calling. It has nothing to do
with Shadowrun. Neither side is ever going to convince the other. And, to
top it all off, it has nothing to do with Shadowrun.

All we're doing with that discussion (which I think the FAQ specifically
mentions is off-topic, though I could be wrong; I've slept since I read it
last) is stirring up negative feelings amongst the list members. It's
energy that could be much better spent, I dunno, talking about the game,
maybe.

I'm not GridSec, so you can readily ignore me at your leisure, but I would
consider it a great service if you were to just drop it, please.

Thanks,
Patrick Goodman
