For those of you curious about my previous post
There’s a bit more on it here at Bob’s and here at Uncle’s.
I could add a bit more on why the blog sucks and its proprietor is an asshole, but why bother? You either see it or don’t. I don’t much care either way, I don’t care for his methods or his ideology so I act according.
PS: If anybody else has added a good post on this issue either drop it in the comments or to weerdbeard AT Gmail DOT com and I’ll link you up.
Never wrestle with a pig. You just get dirty and the pig enjoys it.
I like to wrap the pig in duck tape first. 😉
They copied an entire post of mine again this past Tuesday, but since I was in the middle of some freakish traffic spike with three Instalanches and two SurvivalBlogalanches in a three day period, I was felling pretty magnanimous and decided not to complain. 😉
That’s the only reason why I visit that dump, just to see who he stole from today.
At least he’s taken to hyperlinking the owner whom he cribbed. There have been a few where “Attribution” was a buried text of the URL. Because everybody likes to open a new window and copy/paste.
Also his ideas of “Helping the cause” are debatable at best, and the idea that he’s simply a con man looking to crib free shit by passing the honest work of others seems to fit occam’s razor quite well.
I rarely read him, but there are times where I have and I could swear I’m reading something written by an anti-gunner.
The similarly between his actions and Bonomo’s are quite striking.
Rather than Bore everyone, what I said before at Unc’s and Alan’s stands. But since Tam just said he stole from her Site AGAIN, and I noticed at least 2 Trolls (one of them, the Infamous MikeyBe a 123456789x Asshole), this guy COULD be a front for the Antis. “Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing”, as it were. Just something about his “Blogging Style” smells like Bad Fish. His attitude in Pittsburgh didn’t seem right, also. Wonder if he’s on someone’s Payroll, Mr. Soros? Wouldn’t be the 1st time the DemoCommies have tried the old Soviet Union’s KGB Department of Disinformation trick.
I wouldn’t go so far as invoke that Nazi bastard. I suspect that there are so many gun blogs out there, and Farago has done such hard work to optimize his blog for search engines so he could get traffic before readership, it makes him look bigger than he is for advertisers and industry reps.
Its exactly what he did with the Truth About Cars before he sold it.
He’s a carpet bagger and a con-man than a conspirator. He does bolster trolls and their anti-gun blogs because that causes lots of comments which also mean $$$ from advertisers.
That’s 2 Trolls Commenting on his Blog, that is, and he treats them like they are “Wise Elders” or Something. Sorry about that.
Damn. I guess my stuff isn’t good enough to steal. Got to up my game …
It’s the same as when a gay guy says he doesn’t think you’re cute. It would complicate things if it was true but you can’t help but feel a little left-out. 🙂

That’s funny right there!
Holy crap, North. How do you get on THAT list? If that’s the gunblog blacklist, I wanna be on it. Everyone worth a read is on there.
I dunno. Explain to me how I participated in a conspiracy despite never having chatted with, emailed, or drunk-dialed a single one of my co-conspirators.
With mind bullets? 😉
Geeeez 45er you act as if I don’t deserve to be on the list. Truth is I’m one of the very best gun bloggers out there.
And yet there are a lot of blogs not linked to me.
It is like it is deliberate or something.
Like the gun bloggers get together and deliberately prohibit links to my great blog. (Effort led by Tam, naturally.)
Waaaaaaahhh!!!
Sorry, North, I meant “how do you get on that list” in the general sense, not “how did North make it there”. I guess I meant “how do I make it on the list”.
I’m going to go pout because there is obviously someone maligning against me specifically.
*pout*
You probably have your own list…
Okay, I LOL’ed. 🙂
That’s awesome.
And my parents said I’d never amount to anything!
Meh… I’ve got better things to do, like clean guns…
I posted this elsewhere, and it fits here too:
To be honest, before Robert Farago started up all this blacklist drama to try to drive more traffic to his site, the only time I had seen links to him was when to copied other bloggers’ posts in entirety without their permission.
I would not link a thief with my blog, in hopes that he would not profit from his stealing and perhaps starve in the dark.
