If you expect anybody to take the time to actually read your post, then PLEASE take enough time to write it properly. This isn't grammar school, but it sure isn't a teenage chat room either. I might also mention that poor grammar also makes us all appear very uninformed and uneducated to the anti-gunners, as well as to any average person doing research on firearms that happens to come across our website.
Obviously, consideration may be given to those for whom English is not their primary language. But if English is your ONLY language then there's really no excuse not to communicate properly.
From now on, if a moderator comes across a thread or post that appears to have been written by a stoned 14 year-old, don't expect it to last long. If the poster doesn't get the hint they might not last long either. We hate to have to start acting like a bunch of schoolmarms, but enough is enough.
