Hi! Refugee from DU here (just got TS'd).
« on: July 23, 2012, 06:03:47 PM »
I first posted in The DUmpster, and was informed I should drop off a note here to introduce myself.

I've been posting on DU for about half a year, mostly on the subject of firearms and related topics.  Today was apparently the last straw for them as I got banned.  I'm conservative on firearms, Libertarian-ish on social issues, and very conservative on defense and foreign affairs.  I'm actually here on the advice on someone at DU ("Go to Conservative Cave, you troll!") and thought, "Ok, let's check it out!"

So...here I am.  How are things?

Hi Johnny Rico,

Welcome to CC.

I saw a grave dancing post concerning you over at the  DUng heap .  Congratulations!

Are you a multi-tombstoned poster over there?  

ETA: Your post in the DUmpster answered my question about multiple accounts at DU.

Welcome Johnny Rico

1,438 posts, that's farther then I made with my last mole.

I need to learn to toe the line better next time.

I've read some of your stuff, especally over the weekend.

Maybe we should start giving referral bonuses to DUmmies.

Welcome, JR - I'm one of the few who doesn't do much with the DUmpster, or DU, mostly because when I want to watch a real train wreck, I'll go to Youtube and call one up. I don't need to see 'em live.  :-)

But it's great to have you and if being tombstoned means what I think it does, you're no longer a primitive. That's cause to celebrate!  :cheersmate:

The only good bug is a DEAD bug!

I once saw ST3 on TV because the dude who played Rico resumed his role. Don't recommend it at all. What a POS movie.
