Rules

Rule 1: No homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, racism, serophobia, or misogyny. If you are unclear about what may constitute any of the above, please see the LGBT FAQ. If you are using triggering language in an educational or demonstrative capacity, we ask that you please wrap it in a trigger warning, e.g. [problematic language](/trigger). If you are submitting a post that contains hateful remarks or triggering language, please precede your post's title with [TW]. For example: "[TW] Title of Post"

Rule 2: Demonstrate a willingness to learn. This is a safe space. Anyone can make a mistake and accidentally say something hurtful or triggering. If you find yourself corrected for making this error, please try to learn from it. This is not a place to tell people that they need to reclaim a pejorative so you can use it, that they should laugh at jokes about them, or that they otherwise just "shouldn't be so sensitive." For lightly moderated LGBT-related discussion, we recommend /r/ainbow. /r/ainbow does not moderate discussion, but the community will expect that you treat them with respect. For more information, see /r/ainbow's FAQ.

Rule 3: Meta discussion will be directed to /r/LGBTOpenModmail. The mods check it frequently and will take suggestions into consideration.

Rule 4: Threads that seem to have been taken over by off-topic and/or excessively inflammatory discussion due to linking from other subreddits (Including but not limited to ShitRedditSays, SubredditDrama, and MensRights) will be deleted so they do not appear on r/lgbt's front page. They will still be accessible from outside links. Deleted threads may be unmoderated, so keep this in mind. They are officially disowned and you are on your own if you participate in them.

He actually supports/supported moderate gun control.

PRESS: Clint Eastwood, we're going to jump into politics, but first I want to come back here for just a second on guns. It's going to be a big issue in this campaign year. Big difference between Bush and Gore on this issue. I just want to ask you about -- there are three things in front of the Congress: background check at gun shows, mandatory trigger locks and licensing handguns. Would you support those three measures?

EASTWOOD: Yes, I've always supported a certain amount of gun control. I don't -- I think California has always had a mandatory waiting period, so we were never concerned about it like the rest of the country. Some states didn't have any at all. So I've always supported that. I think it's very important that guns don't get in the wrong hands, and, yes, I would support most of that. I don't know too much about trigger locks. I've never really discussed that with anyone. But I do feel that guns -- it's very important to keep them out of the hands of felons or anyone who might be crazy with it.
