Uh oh, I guess I left my guard down and gave Eppya glimpse of my clairvoyant abilities. Silly me.
It cannot be made any clearer: The discussion is here to be had, your opinion and input are valuable, but you can back out anytime if something offends you. A better approach would be to ignore, or just critically scan, the comments of the person who has offended you. There may still be something valuable in other things they have to say.
Everyone here seems to misunderstand me. I'm not offended. I don't identify as a liberal, so it doesn't bother me personally. I also don't believe in putting anyone on "ignore". It's silly.
The point of my original response was a request that maybe we start this forum off as a more intelligent place than the old Spin Zone was and try to refrain from name calling, insults and gross generalizations. The old Spin Zone was often just a school yard squabble with no real argument, but just contradiction and insults.
Anyhow, the suggestion seems to have fallen on deaf ears. It seems the freedom to insult people is held more dear than the ideal of a good debate. So be it. Like I have said, I'm not here to censor anybody (even if I could) or go all touchy feely PC on people. I can play the school yard way too, but I fear it will get boring, turn people off once the loudest bullies take over and this site will never get any bigger, or better.
See ya. You should be protected from having hurt feelings or hearing ideas that didn't come from HuffPo over there. Enjoy.
That's a good point. Liberal/Progressives don't like to have their ideas and views challenged because ultimately they can not defend them so resort to emotion and name calling. Their "hurt feelings" caused POA to close SZ.
It's even worse than that, though. Look at how the liberal progressives seek to shut up, shout down, and physically disrupt opposing voices. It's NOT ENOUGH just to turn off Rush, not attend an Ann Coulter or Michael Savage speech on a college campus, switch the channel from Fox or The Blaze, or not go into the Spin Zone. They seek to SHUT THEM ALL DOWN.
And in the case of POA, the liberal/progressives have succeeded. Cowardly fucking pussies.
The disturbing photograph shows a migrant climbing onto a truck sitting in a queue and brandishing a hammer in the face of its terrified driver. [/size]It was taken as hundreds of migrants "armed with iron bars and hammers" stormed the port and Channel Tunnel entrances in an "unprecedented" mass attempt to reach Britain. [/color]
The only difference is the GOP folks are more slick about it and don't get caught quite so readily.
I'll never understand why you guys bitch so. The GOP has control of nearly every state legislature in the US, not to mention lots of governorships.

We're falling down a slippery slope. I don't see any way to change the current wave of progression.
Well, yes, I do. It involves rigorous changes in education and an elimination of the sense that everybody needs to feel equal.
I'm just trying to keep to myself and enjoy what I can, while I can.
