Pickup truck and flannel here. No Cat hat though. Bruins currentlyCurious if any African Americans, or women hang out on this board? Or is it all New England guys with plumbers' crack, a CAT hat, a big pickup, and flannel shirts?
Maybe it's my bias, but it seems that most people here are white, guys, leaning toward the blue collar spectrum, and really hetero. Was just wondering if that was reality, or there were other folks here. And wondering quite frankly if I'm the only LGBT person here.
I like the fact that there is an Italian men's club in Natick that has a bocce league, and serves pizza on the weekends made by the local club guys. I like the fact that there's an Iraqi family in Clinton that has an amazing restaurant on the main drag there. I like the fact that a lady shows up shooting an AR at the range. I like the fact that Harvard supports a Pink Pistols group, and there are 12 year old girls shooting trap at Tewkesbury.Racial profiling. We don’t play that game here. You’re either a decent person or you’re an a**h***. Which begs the question, what kind of decent person would ask such a question.
Nope. You’ll always have Marsha to lean on if someone upsets you.Maybe it's my bias, but it seems that most people here are white, guys, leaning toward the blue collar spectrum, and really hetero.

No ones forcing you to hang out with white guys?I like the fact that there is an Italian men's club in Natick that has a bocce league, and serves pizza on the weekends made by the local club guys.

It's a nice change of pace from the usual crew that seems to hang out in the gun world. - deer hunting white guys. Nothing wrong with white guys, but it does get kind of dull.
You don’t hang out with the same type of guys that i do. Here’s a pic from a recent match at my club.I like the fact that there is an Italian men's club in Natick that has a bocce league, and serves pizza on the weekends made by the local club guys.

My Saint Bernard has more Native American heritage than Liz Warren. He does have high cheekbones.I legitimately have more Native American heritage than Liz Warren, does that count?
There is nothing fundamentally wrong with being an a**h***. I choose to use my gift for the good of mankind.Diversity: You're either an a**h*** or not. Nothing else matters for the most part.
Yeah. Although there were a lot more middle-aged, paunchy guys at the last Mag 40 class.
We have one of them too. @SpaceCritterEvery human on earth is of african descent. there is only one race, unless you identify as non-human.
You mean we have both kinds of diversity? Country AND Western?We have the most important kind of diversity... Diversity of thought, belief, occupation, skill, likes, dislikes, etc. and best of all, it is without mandates, coercion or penalty. It became this way naturally.
You forgot albino, lesbian, buddhist pygmies.Diversity = African Americans and women. Got it.
Now, tell me why, on a (mostly) gun forum, why I would give a sh*t that you're LGBT ? If that's what you want to talk about aren't there other forums out there better suited ?Maybe it's my bias, but it seems that most people here are white, guys, leaning toward the blue collar spectrum, and really hetero.

North Albanian, South Albanian, Kosovar Albanian, Gheg Albanian, Albanian in N. Macedonia, Albanian-AmericanYou forgot albino, lesbian, buddhist pygmies.
Because everyone wants to feel like they belong. Finding people who are like you helps in that regard. It makes you feel less like an outsider.Now, tell me why, on a (mostly) gun forum, why I would give a sh*t that you're LGBT ?

If my parents had been kidnapped then sold off to someone in China where I was eventually born....I'd have a hard time identifying as "Chinese".There are no "African Americans". If you were born in this country you are an "American". Jack.
OK, I have a question for you why is it that you have to label everyone,like Black, white,green ? Why do you have to tell people that your LGBT is there something special that I need to know about your sexual preference? Do I have to treat you different,is there a special gun that only LGBT shoot?Maybe it's my bias, but it seems that most people here are white, guys, leaning toward the blue collar spectrum, and really hetero.

That would inform on one's choice to own a .40 (or 6.5 creedmore).Now, tell me why, on a (mostly) gun forum, why I would give a sh*t that you're LGBT ? If that's what you want to talk about aren't there other forums out there better suited ?
Correct. And with migration skin pigment faded with those settled into colder climates.Every human on earth is of african descent. there is only one race, unless you identify as non-human.
There’s plenty of diversity:
70-72 year old white guys
73-74 year old white guys
75-76 year old white guys
77-78 year old white guys
79-80 year old white guys

Different cultures, different ways of looking at things. It's nice to talk to someone other than the typical guys you see hanging around the gun shops.
There are plenty of white collar members, including engineers, doctors and lawyers. Your assertion is not accurate.Maybe it's my bias, but it seems that most people here are white, guys, leaning toward the blue collar spectrum, and really hetero.

Importation of slaves ended about 200 years ago. Slavery in the US ended about 160 years ago. At some point you must decide where your ties are closer.If my parents had been kidnapped then sold off to someone in China where I was eventually born....I'd have a hard time identifying as "Chinese".
