Re: please be civil

A while back I argued with Dr. Bob that there could be room for political/war discussions without it becoming too hostile. He had argued that it was unlikely that such discussions could happen in a civil manner, that they would escalate too quickly and to hotly.

Perhaps I underestimated the power of such discussions. I concede to the Dr. on this one.

It seems to me that a number of misunderstandings heated up really fast into anger and hurt.

All of the people involved are posters I respect and want to have around. Maybe a deep breath and backing off from it for a bit can help?

And I guess we need to be extremely sensitive to how touchy a topic this war is for many of us (myself included which is one reason I tend to stay away from those discussions).
