Asking again to keep the conversation civil and discuss politics


Posted: Apr 13, 2012

I am reading down the board and lots of posters are insulting other posters.  Some have got insults mixed in with the subject matter it's becoming difficult to find where it starts.  Insults are coming from all over.

I am asking everyone once again to please refrain from insulting other posters.  Lets all be adults and discuss the topics that are important to us.  I know posters are pushing the buttons, but try and ignore them and just stick to the topics.  We really need this to be a political board and not personal.

Thanks,

Truthhurts: I See You Have Tried To Discuss Again (sm)Jul 23, 2013
in a calm and rational manner this country's problems with race.  O'Reilly explained it very well; that was the best talking points I have ever seen him do.  People on the other side of the aisle on this board don't want to discuss anything that they don't agree with - if you're interested, I know a place where you can discuss rationally - both sides of an issue.  If you're interested, I've checked the box above and will respond to your post.&nbs ...

A Conversation With A Staunch Democrat...Dec 07, 2015
I had the occasion over the weekend to have a conversation with a former neighbor, a staunch liberal democrat from New York. We used to have many discussions over the past years about politics, always polite, always respectful. In fact, she is one of the few liberals I know who is not full of vitriol and hateful rhetoric. What she told me this past weekend shocked me. She admitted to me that I had been right all along about BO and his ineffective leadership. She said she never felt so helpless ...

We Need A New Topic To Discuss And DebateMay 08, 2011
On my mind has been the stealth helicoptor that was left behind in the raid that killed Osama Bin Laden. I think the young heroes on that raid just got a little too anxious on that one. We could talk about whether or not America tortures people, waterboarding, etc. I believe that torture isn't right, whether it's being done to or by American soldiers. Another topic I wouldn't mind discussing is whether Americans disagree about politics more these days than in the past. ...

He is opposed to both abortion and same-sex marriage, although he would argue that those are primarily theological positions, and other issues, including poverty and immigration, are also important to h ...

Just agree to disagree and stop with all the accusatory posts. People in this forum more than likely had nothing at all to do with any of the protests starting from when Obama was president to the present time. Can't we just focus on concrete truths and not abstract accusations? Can't we discuss how best to handle tax reform, the health care mess, the potential asylum for many in Venezuela, the crisis in North Korea, etc, etc? STOP THE RACISM ON BOTH SIDES. STOP THE ARGUING ON BO ...

Civil Rights Bills Passed ForAug 21, 2017
Food for thought: “I maintain that every civil rights bill in this country was passed for white people, not for black people. For example, I am black. I know that. I also know that while I am black I am a human being. Therefore I have the right to go into any public place. White people don’t know that. Every time I tried to go into a public place they stopped me. So some boys had to write a bill to tell that white man, “He’s a human being; don’t stop him." That bill was for the whit ...
