If I can't find a diplomatic way to discuss a topic I'll just leave it alone in order to stay compliant. I've never been in a forum before. Some people can't participate in a political conversation without becoming beligerant. You should see my wifes father.  He gets insane! I'm not sure if other forums are like this as far as policy but this is a pretty cool forum. Glad I don't have to moderate. Probably sucks to have to lay the hammer down.  |
Ofcourse we are not the only ones, I just have a feeling many may have just given up since this thing passed without a fight being allowed and without anybody reading it in its entirety. Unfortunately politics is infused in almost everything that is going on these days and the recurring theme for example re-implementing the fairness doctrine is to silence critics in the few mediums they have left. I understand the decision to keep politics out back during the election since those times do make everyone even more passionate and harder to moderate. However now that the election is over and all these new decisions and policies that are affecting us directly in many different ways including automobiles and our beloved Camaro, it is hard to stand idly by and say nothing about it. Especially in a forum about one particular car and in an area called general automotive.. I'll be back, I'm getting a call..
