keep this shit off-list please. political discussion as it pertains to
firearms has nothing to do with linux, and it was only brought up
because it's a tradition associated with SELF itself[0] and was
necessary to mention for logistic purposes. if you take offense, don't
go, it's a simple solution. being that you weren't aware of this
tradition, i have doubts you had planned to attend at all thereby making
your contribution unnecessary. this will be my only email in this thread
regarding this topic. the end.
