The TOS does not state that all threads about politics will be deleted. It simply asks that we avoid this as a topic. I we users choose to start up a political thread, then as long everyone is civil, and the "ranting" and name calling is avoided, all is good.
But the TOS gives fair warning that discussion will be monitored and inappropriate posts deleted and threads spiralling into bad territory will be locked.
Apart from at least 1 obviously offensive post ( I may have missed others before they were deleted) the discussion in this thread has been pretty civil, so why not let it go on.
Mike and the mods can't win, they get slammed for locking threads and deleting post, then cop when they don't.
