    No banning for political statments in the political area. I would like to see the name calling cease. It does not further the cause on either side.

    IMHO there is not a BOTL here that would not help out another BOTL regardless of his political standing.

    Cigar smokers all have something in common...The love of the leaf. I may disagree with Barry on politics...But I would sit down with him and have a smoke and a drink anytime.

    Disagree with each other...No problem. Just save the harsh stuff for scammers and thieves.

    Barry has proven he's incapable of doing that which is why I would prefer to see him thrown out of here on his ass. Either that or he can cease with his bullshit but that's like asking the sun not to come up ever again or Scotty to act like a human being, it's just impossible which is why I think he should be shown the door.

    Hello pot.

    Whine whine whine whine whine. You couldn't whine any more if you bled monthly.

    Since you want to pretend you're an injured puppy here, why don't you start the poll?

    I'll start the poll.

    I vote No Ban!

    It's kind of preposterous to ban sombody for posting a POLITICAL view in a POLITICAL forum, don'tcha think?

    Score so far:

    No - 1
    Yes - 0

    Let's get this nonsense over with!

    It's not the message, it's the delivery. Political viewpoints are of no consequence in deeming his posts inappropriate. It is more likely than not that Barry and I will end up voting for the same person for the next president. However, because of his inflammatory posting style I have yet to see anything value in his posts.

    As I said before, I haven't asked (even though it seems he is) for a banning poll nor do I plan to. Although politically I lean more to the left than right, I find his position, because of his tone, unsupportable and detrimental to the board environment.

    Point taken, However, political discussions can and do get heated. If we all want the political forum, then we need to understand this. It's easy to take a post personally... It's just as easy to ignore it. The only alternative, in my view, is to get rid of the political forum, which I do not want.

    Getting rid of the political forum is not the answer.

    Behaving in a mature and respectable manner is.

    That goes for everyone, including me.

    Get a clue sheby, it's not his "political" views that are the issue here, it's his nasty, vicious, vulgar posts and overall shitty attitude and the way he attacks people personally for no good reason.

    Fuck you you worthless piece of shit. I never attacked you until you started your shit with me. I really wish someone would beat the living shit out of you as I couldn't think of someone better for that to happen to. If you talk in real life the way you do here, it's bound to happen sometime.

    Why not you tough guy?

    You are really a piece of work. Now, not only are you fond of throwing around personal insults, but you're passing out veiled threats also.

    Step out from behind your keyboard, and bring your shit here. Or, are you just like all the other tough talking asshats, all blow and no show?

    I'll be waiting.

    I don't like Barry's style of posting. IMHO he posts like an arrogant prick...Not a thief or scammer. He keeps his name calling and abrasive attitude in the political area which is pretty much wide open for all to post in the manner they desire. Politics brings out a passionate side in most folks. Several people have said some things lately that I would hope they regret. It has not bled into other areas of the board...A good thing.

    Should it bleed into other areas of the board the issue should be addressed and dealth with.

    Do I hope he gets beat up?? No way would I wish that on anybody.

    Do I wish he would post in a manner that I would find less arrogant and prickish?? Yep...You bet. His message is lost in all the bullshit he flings.

    Wishing Barry physical harm is no way to deal with the issue. The way to deal with it is to keep approaching him with class and dignity.

    It's the only way to get through to someone as fucked up as him sarge. Reasoning and common sense does nothing with this stupid prick.
