Thank you, sauropod. I think we all post because we’ve thought about something and want to tell other people and hear their ideas on the matter. But there are a lot of people - and unfortunately this seems to be a big problem with conservatives - where “it’s my way or the highway, and btw, you’re a horrible person.” That doesn’t help conservatives in general and certainly doesn’t help anybody in particular.

Nobody has ever convinced anybody of the rightness of their position by doing a personal attack on somebody who holds a different opinion!

But most of the time on FR the discussions are good and civil and in fact half the time people will realize that they had misunderstood what their “opponent” was saying in the first post and will end up apologizing to each other. LOL!

So that’s one of the beauties of FR, which has so many good and decent people. Thank you again for trying to keep it that way.
