    Nooooo... It was one specific topic that spiraled out of control that ruined everything for everyone else. On a personal note, I'll be greatly disappointed if politics is banned from this forum. It just needs to be places in an "Off-Topic" sub-forum under the Lounge, and make it to where you can't see it's updated posts when you click on the "View New Threads"  button.

      I wouldn't have left it at a simple layoff... maybe have the cars towed then send them on their way.

      Maybe get them for trespassing if they came back in.

              discrimination based on political choice
              That's not constitutionally protected from discrimination. In the state of Texas he can tell the people he doesn't like their choice of shoes for that day and that's why he's getting rid of them. All long as it's not based on one of the criteria that are protected. I'm playing nice...I promise.

                  My post was a satirical commentary based on the reactions here on HFB in conjunction with national events in politics. It was not emotional and if anything it was a little pointed at the governing body of HFB.

                  That said, feel the break down in the lounge was due to people personalizing things way too much and reacting.

                      So, I find the timing to be just a tad more than ironic. Welcome to the ObamaNation where everyone suffers for the acts of few and individual responsibility is lost.

                      My observation. The lounge was getting heated during a very heated time in our great nation. The moderators failed to moderate the lounge (Not blaming and I know there are extenuating circumstances for all involved) and a few people were allowed to escalate issues without a controlling body present. now we have no forum for discussions beyond the hobby. So now, because the governing body broke down, we as a community have lost certain privileges (i.e. gun ownership, financial responsibility, personal responsibility, etc...). Welcome to our ObamaNation. He isn't even in office yet and the cloud is over us.
                      Your response, and the subsequent responses by those feeling it necessary to respond to you, are exactely why the Lounge was closed in the first place.  It starts by saying something benign, apologetic, complimentary and the like but then evolves into a statement of "why things are the way they are", followed by inflammatory remarks while the poster(s) plays the innocent "what did I do/say?" game.

                      Your political insight/opinion has no place in this thread.  Your attempt to hijack this thread and turn it into OBAMA bashing is transparent and irritating.  Your intellect is constantly spewing out trash talk.  

                      And its not just you.  There are others that are more than willing to engage you in ejaculating the vernacular.  Everyone here can see that.  Everyone here knows how to play that game.  Most people here would rather NOT play that game.  

                      What happened to respecting others and being civil?   The Lounge was closed b/c ADULTS could not exercise self censorship and self restraint which lead to a negative turn of events that no one wants except the curmudgeons with an axe to grind.

                      I suggest that when the Lounge is reopened that NO POLITCS OR RELIGION is a rule and that members are required to remain RESPECTFUL and CIVIL at all times.

                              No, we engage in playful banter, EK. We tease each other, but no malice is ever intended. At least, not from me.  :wink:
