Let me be very clear that I don't want to start something that is against the rules. So no left, right, center, just a forum name or two.
But while I'm at it, why can't we have a politics forum on here? And I'm serious. I understand what problems can occur. I worked in bars and restaurants for 15 years so just throw some alcohol on it and it explodes. But some sub, separate, sub, sub, way sub under something forum marked very clearly with "ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK".
Anyway, until that day comes, someone tell me where to go.

We tried that, it didn't work. Things tended to 'spill over' into other areas, and it would even spread into completely unrelated topics. Its gave a bad vibe to the site as a whole -even though it was one little section down near the bottom of the forum list.
As for places to discuss politics, there's one site I used to visit but its Canada-centric, so probably not what you'd be looking for. Which reminds me ... since political views tend to be personal, a site that one of us likes (perhaps a small site that caters to a particular extreme viewpoint) might not be what you're interested in (say a large site full of moderates)
