FR is just not the place for this kind of thread. There are a hundred other places on the web where you could go to talk with people about your pain. This just isn't the place.

There is nothing wrong with posts from FR members that are experiencing a crisis in their life. Especially from members that have contributed much to FR. If you don't like certain kinds of vanity posts don't read it. I see other subject threads on FR that have nothing to do with politics ranging from religion to sports to science to trivia. If I am not interested I don't read the thread. What's the big deal? Actually there is something to be said about having a little bit of human touch on this board.

Hi WR
In the last election I believed getting Bush in Office was the way to get the tyrant out of power
yet I never criticized anyone for voting for Buchanan or Harry Browne
or tried to pressure them to vote for Bush
I like free expression
I hope FR continues to be a place where all points of view are welcome
Love, Palo
