Heeeyyyyyy, HERE'S an idea:
Add yet ANOTHER forum and label it 'Politics, etc.'
People could then enter at their own risk and peril, and if something offensive gets posted that starts a fight or name calling, it could get even further filtered/deleted by a moderator. This would also allow such discussions to continue (for those who like to read and/or engage in these topics), provide a place to move posts not deemed 'suitable' in the Lounge.
I'm of the mind that if a topic bores, disturbs, or incites me, then I just tune it out and go somewhere else, but I can understand (even if I don't agree with) those who don't want to even see the more political type posts but seemingly can't refrain from opening them and being offended.
Does this compromise make any sense to anyone else, or am I just speaking into an icebox here?
