Most of the good ones are closed. You can send a request if you wish to join a group. Sometimes you have to answer a question or two. Got my best anime and doujinshi recommendations only from facebook groups. Some of these guys are world-class experts and connoisseurs at this stuff.

I had a debate with a liberal friend the other week about guns. As far as gun control favoring liberals go he is very reasonable and does value being informed (which for a liberal on guns is VERY rare). The main point we ended up getting to was why does someone need a thirty (30) round AR-15 for any reason other than killing masses of people. While the "ideal home defense" gun will vary from expert or person there is certainly a faction of them that will recommend an AR style (semi automatic) rifle. There are several key reasons and points why this is the case. 1. Versatility - the AR-15 (or AR style rifles) can be configured with stock and after market parts with a great deal of versatility and multitude of purposes to suit a great deal of needs. 2. Capacity - with a standard (in most states anyway) thirty round magazine (not clip!!) there is a greater array of threats you can deal with that otherwise you would be vulnerable too. It also makes giving a warning shot or something like that a much more feasible option (I might spare 1/30 for a warning but no way in hell am I sparing 1/10 for a legitimate warning) ** People often think that 10 or less is enough and that there is no need for more than 10 rounds for whatever inane reasons. If you take just 5 minutes to do some research on why this could be false it is very enlightening. 3. Economics - the AR-15 platform is very economical in that with one gun you can accomplish what would otherwise require 2-4 guns of purchasing to accomplish (although a great deal of extra parts and a little know how are needed) 4. Ease of use - the AR platform is one of the easiest platforms for new and experienced shooters alike and user friendliness is quite a thing when your life and those that you love are on the line My point being there ARE legitimate reasons that someone would want a 30 round capacity AR-15 (or AR style rifle) and not be hell bent on shooting up a school or nightclub. Just like people classes of weapons have strengths and weaknesses when compared to other classes guns too are subject to this concept. (IE AR Style Rifle v Shotgun V Handgun)

Pretty new to this but you should like what you like what you like is what makes you you what's the worst people can do, I work on a large construction site and I have always been open with what I like.

As someone who enjoys both the Pokemon video games, the TCG, and has gotten a little bit into D&D, I certainly think I would be down to try this out.

For people who live near each other, have y'all met up? If you haven't what do you feel is stopping you?

I'm a pretty big fan of The Others: 7 Sins, Arkham Horror, and Ashes: Rise of the Phonixborn. Also make quite a bit of use of TableTop Sim for those, as well as the physical games themselves.

Thanks, I keep low expectations for most things while fully knowing the expectations for what I'm about to approach. It makes it so when it does happen it's surprising and exciting.
