If you ever wondered which side of the fence you sit on, this is a great test!

HOOKER. YEP, don't make a lick of sense. I remember a guy on another board that was a big dem supporter, yet he claimed to like the shooting sports. The owner saw him for what he was and banned him. He was actually an anti gunner there only to divide the hunters and shooters and cause conflict. POWDERMAN.  

so in your viewpoint or by your litmus test a Liberal or democrat cannot be a hunter , or enjoy shooting sports? Interesting.  I have enjoyed hunting and shooting all my life , Served our country , and supported republican conservative fiscal views and values when they walked the walk rather than just talked the talk , lean a bit more left of center on some social views , a bit more right of center on others depending on subject matter.

NOw republican party has been taken over by a bunch of teabag fringe wing nuts and the republican party has alienated me even more now days with the unqualified candidates they are throwing their support behind. This is not the republican party I knew and grew up with.

It must be a good feeling PM to have everything cut so black and white in your little world.

The older I get , the more Grays I find. Since conservatives on this board are trying to claim GB's as their own. and given my moderate center views I must clearly not pass today's republican far right conservatives litmus test. Perhaps you should approach GB and ask him to change the website to Graybeards Conservatives Outdoors.  

Hmmm ,,, and given my moderate and tolerant mainstream views..... then perhaps I should give up hunting and shooting and fishing and camping and be banned.

One question that begs an answer.
Why are some Liberal in their thinking and politics yet they love guns hunting,fishing and outdoor endevours?
These activities are under attack daily by Liberal politicians and groups that would like nothing more than to ban them.
If the the liberals among us are not trolls then perhaps they are conservatives in denial.

I'll go you one better!
I don't want to offend anyone,(this time), but I have to wonder about Christian Democrats. The Democratic Party supports abortion and other social issues that are not supported biblically. Not trying to start anything here. Just gotta wonder.

Maybe it has do do with there being more to political life than just hunting and fishing. Why are there republican legislators that are anti-gun and how did they get elected??? If you think in any way I am just acting as a troll and not a shooter just quiz me on my firearm knowledge. In had my first BB gun at six, first .22 at 10, first shotgun at 11 and my first handgun at 13. At 16 with my Ruger Mark I target pistol I could outshoot most of the "town kids" using their rifles. It is difficult to say I am not an enthusiast when I currently own eleven firearms and reload including this pictures highwall in .219 DW. If you do not know what the DW stands for I will explain if asked.

Are you positive you are a liberal? Maybe you are a Libertarian? take the test-http://www.theadvocates.org/quiz

When it comes to a political cadidate, I need only know one thing about him-where he stands on my right to own a gun. If he is against that it tells me EVERYTHING I need to know about him

You might be on to something there, I will need to take that test when I get a bit more time.

Tests don't matter if you have certain feelings about liberals and conservatives and what they are.
Like if you think conservatives are racists...you are probably just mis-informed on what anything means.

If a black family moves onto the block a liberal will send a welcome wagon.
A conservative will be making plans to move to the burbs.

Well...do ya think conservatives are racist?  Or do you just call some racists conservatives?
I know some black liberals are racist for sure, they got famous being that way. Maybe racists are just that and nothing else...they are probably not smart enough to be anything. 

Charles Heston was a true conservative liberal...very, very few of those around today, a lot of lefties took the name liberal...don't mean they are, it just sounds better than what they REALLY are. Then we have ignorant people who did not ever study what a progressive really is, and actually call themselves that in public because they don't know any better.

Heston marched with Martin L. King when it was not fashionable and nobody else would...including the progressives...who now somehow call themselves liberals.

We spend too much time on all the aords passed around, the meanings are twisted, always have been.

We need a new word...maybe the "logical" party....but they would ruin that word too in time.

Look guys nobody here said we weren't allowed different views. If thats the way some of you see it shame on ya, it wasn't meant that way. What I, and others here don't understand is how ANYBODY with 1/2 a brain could possibly say they are pro gun and still support people that believe we should all be disarmed is beyond me. The dems are rabidly anti 2nd, have been many years, pro gay, pro death, and for just about anything that is morally reprehensible. Those are things you support by voting dem. I see no way any gun owner, shooter, etc could vote for a liberal, they are the enemies of America and will be our downfall. POWDERMAN.   

[SHOOTALL]

donaldson wasp , how does that reall matter ?
The problem is we have politicans and we need leaders , we got here when the voters found out they could vote in folks to cater to them.
 I'm on the side of the fence that feels if you don't own land or pay taxes you should not vote ! Look back to the begining , its the way it was set up .

Exactly
