I would like to believe we're a website that will be a fair place to come when all the current madness
dies down and decent discourse will be sought.
The idea that two opposing opinions can have equal merit and be honourable in their positions, is regularly
maintained here without the need for name-calling. Granted, the earlier US election brought emotions based
on 'I-just-don't-like-him/her' perceptions, but in my view, political arenas have become nothing more than
'game-show' free-for-alls with subtly abusive pithy rhetoric.
Like Gordi suggested, we tend not to be the place for the one-liners of insult and at the moment, maybe
we're not sexy enough!
And again, quality for posts with members engaged in polite, noble discussion is paramount for those still
out there who wish to find a place away from the squabbling egoists.
P.S By the way, the baiting media doesn't help!
