We didn't demand it to end because we disagreed. We ended it because it was completely inappropriate for this forum.
If I were a mod I would have shut OH down and deleted his bait posts but this has been discussed before in an adult manner without people getting offended (with WWWP even). I'd say end the discussion for a week and if people still want to talk about it open a thread with a reasonable title in the political section and keep a close eye on it.
