This could well be the only forum with the legitimate name of "A Forum For All Seasons! if only those who post their viewes do so in a civilised manner. No "in-you-face" cra p, no over the top insults, just views; and when these views are different then simply either respond to the with criticism (discuss the mistake) or simply don't respond. I love hearing from other people: about Iraq, about Israel, about Australia, about Genetic engineering, about all sorts of things. I hate being told I'm a traitor or a racist but I cop it because these comments usually come from nobodies-wonnabies so it doesn't matter. Closing the forum serves nobody but the thugs who don't get everything they want. I don't know how strong the management is but it ought to begin by weaning out those thugs.
