Yes, I reported the trash in an effort to clean up the thread, and I will continue to do so until they get sick of babysitting adults who can't act like it in ONE thread.

Let's keep the discussion rolling or I'll just ask to have the thread locked. I'm trying to keep at least one thread productive in this sub-section. If you can't handle that please just don't bother posting in here.

What discussion? You sre stifling discussion without providing a specific topic. It is like screaming stay on topic when there is just a broad discussion going on that varies.

Good idea. I was thinking of running for a Board of Education seat to wet my feet before my city council run. If you end up liking your board position maybe go county then state.

It would get shot down so quick. There are nine members on the board in total. It would be very hard to persuade four of those ols fogeys to vote on my side fir that.

If it's a public session then invite a bunch of cosplayers to show up early and take all the seats and cheer and boo when appropriate.

There was no discussion. It was people flaming each other about how they debate. I could just have the thread locked if everyone thinks its a bad idea to have a single thread that doesnt result in flaming one another when the topics result in conflicting opinions.

It set a bad precedent when the OP started off being just that and listing off names of people that you feel shouldn't be in this thread so of course it will devolve into that.

Proving fault is currently a mess and that is why the divorce situation is in the exact position it is now.

It started as a joke thread as a response to your Trump thread being locked yet again because of the 3 people mentioned in the OP. After that Bat and Grindy commented, so I decided to actually try and make it a place for people to have constructive conversations free of the characteristics of the Trump thread.

@Frown - I'm at work now, but two topics that I think would be interesting to discuss:

(1) the other thread I made that no one seemed interested in, discussing statistical disparities and isms.

(2) Matt Dillahunty's argument for pro-choice.


This divorce topic is cool though so let's keep that moving.
