I should like to suggest a political action community such as
avaaz.org with its community petition platform as a more appropriate venue for some of what has been going on here of late.
'Historic Firearms and mankind...' is under review as it is likely permissible in the new Ethnographic Miscellanea forum, but we need to develop a consensus among the moderator team.
For now, caution is suggested to members about where they take this 'protest thread.'
