I agree somewhat with your comments, but as I interpret it, this forum is for discussing non-gun related, and gun related issues that are not covered elsewhere. As such, the subject matter is often very subjective and varying opinions may be posted. From time to time some people get a little carried away, or are overly passionate about a subject, but for the most part it is just a healthy discussion with many points of view.
I have never had a problem getting information on a specific issue when I go to the forum that covers it.
