This site has proved it can't handle politics so just leave it at that.

Well, maybe that's more indicative of the type of people in these particular forums, than the other forum i'm in. It's still possible with strict rules, was all I was getting at.
and just to go further in the people i'm talking about, the other forum i'm in, are mostly of teenagers and twenty something's because of the car it's made around. Those type of people, although can get feisty when it comes to politics, they can easily be swayed, or just ignore people, if they get on their nerves, and not move the topic out of the subforum.
People on this site and probably GMI are of the older crowd. People stuck in their own views. Sort of a tunnel vision attitude. Their view is right, and no other can change that. Which then usually leads to fighting, name calling, etc. which is pretty sad.
Camaro5 said they tried back in 2008 or 2009? There was probably a lot of other things they cared about, than a political section. lol Right now, it's pretty slow, it seems. Other than trying to get fest going, at least...
