[eulesseagle]

Harry.....(1) are you saying it is ok to post political topics? (2) are you saying toleration of disagreements stop at what point? give a couple examples just for clarification and that no expulsions from the board will be applied by the administrator. tkx.

The Supreme Court can't even define pornography, but you expect us to give you firm guidelines for a message board on the internets?

I think we stand by the Supreme Courts words, "you know if when you see it" in regard to what will get you banned.

Are we now invoking the Supreme Court precedent for forum rules? Wow, what a cop out.

I am saying that if you post a political topic you should have a personal opinion that accompanies it. What I don't want is posters that are regurgitating talking points supporting one side or another. I want you to have an opinion regarding something. If it is well thought out and communicated in a respectable way then you will have no problems with the moderators on this board. GMG!

Just to make sure I (and eulesseagle, who posed the question) understand as clearly as possible:

What you're saying is, someone who makes a habit of posting inflammatory thread titles, links to stories from politically aligned media outlets, and accompanying 1 or 2 sentence comments that "regurgitat(e) talking points" or simply take shots at other board members and/or broad political parties/thoughts under the guise of rhetorical questions...

Someone like that would be violating the spirit of the board rules? Particularly if it was the vast majority of their activity on this board?

Anybody that would go to such lengths really needs to get a life.
