Live threads are a venerable tradition on FR. We enjoy sharing our thoughts, opinions and knowledge related to events as they unfold. The live threads can also be useful to those who cannot see the event itself, but look to the thread for updates on what is happening.

Though we may be “like minded” we are still individuals with unique insights and perceptions. Mutual respect should be shown in the way we react to each other.

A certain amount of “rough and tumble” goes with the territory. But, there needs to be a limit, especially on the live threads.. After all, isn’t self-restraint a virtue that conservatism promotes?

I pretty much draw the line on self-restraint when my head is getting beat into a concrete sidewalk..............then all bets are off.

Are the limits you speak of limits on truth telling? Do your limits mean that we must acknowledge that Saint Trayvon told Miss Slim Jeans that there was a "rather confused looking man who appears to be of European origin following me"? Or must we acknowledge that that neighbor couldn't be *sure* that it was the guy in red on the bottom and couldn't be *sure* that he was getting the tar beaten out of him?
