Why is it from the first reply on the "glockaphiles" responses have resorted to name calling, charactre assassination and "clintonista" tactics in general? Some the points the original poster made are pretty well documented including the DC PD's pathectic record with Glock, the FBI's initial condemnation of the Glock and their more recent "rethinking" (politically correcting?") their position, and Glock's greater than average propensity to kB! (a term coined for the Glock) even with factory ammunition.

Even when the subject is not particularly directed to Glock, it is not unusual for a "true'believer" to pop in to disparage and insult another handgun (e.g., the "Why I Don't Sig" thread in the General Handgunning forum when a Glockaphile (7th Fleet) popped in announced the Sig was a "POS" because he failed to properly maintain his P220, and it rusted).

In all my times on various forums, I have only one discussion/disagreement with a Glockaphile that remained civil.
