"I always felt we could handle civil disagreements without demanding a ban."

Curiosity abounds...who "demanded a ban"? From what I've seen, folks like Mr. Barsett in #15,026 asked to be disassociated from FR. Now that's a pity because he was a good contributer, but it was his choice.

Others are more petulant regarding the sites return to its core values. They resent being reined in or having the limits explained to them. As always the zapper patiently waits, attentive, and for some irresistible...

You’re right. There was a core group of agitators, it seems that they have just about all either been banned or left voluntarily.

I’m not trying to “bait” anyone, I am totally unaware of any qualifications that Rudy has to be POTUS. His post-9/11 actions have been unmeritoriously elevated to mythical levels.

The incivility began when it was made plain here that you can’t support a particular candidate.

I'm afraid I can't agree with you there, friend. From where I sit, it began when a group of folks foisted a faux-conservative on others and insisted that this is the only candidate capable of beating Hillary (and that any debate on the matter during this primary season would only strengthen the Dems).

Then you aren’t supporting him. Can you cite a legitimate reason why anyone would?

“Baiting” is what the agitators used to do to us. They would bait us and when we responded they would call us baiters. Liberal Projection 101, haters call people they hate haters...

That is called a bait

Though I'll play the game for a second ..

I can't speak for others .. you'll have to ask them to speak for themselves and their reasons

Oh, wait

Yep. It was comical how many of the FRiberals started using terms like “fascist” and implying that Jim Robinson was violating their free speech rights.

FWIW, this rhubarb reminds me of a couple of different quotes from the movie musical 1776. The quotes are strung together to suit my purposes :)

Hopkins: Well, in all my years I ain't never heard, seen nor smelled an issue that was so dangerous it couldn't be talked about. Hell yeah! I'm for debating anything...

Lewis Morris: Courteously.

You can't CLOSE the boarders .. for many reasons

Sure you can build a wall or a good fence, and patrol with enough personnel to do the job. North and South Korea have been squared off against a closed border since before I was born. There may be people who want it to remain open for Economic and/or Political reasons, but militarily it wouldn't be that difficult a task.

The art of war teaches us to rely not on the likelihood of the enemy's not coming, but on our own readiness to receive him; not on the chance of his not attacking, but rather on the fact that we have made our position unassailable.

- Sun Tzu

I’ve asked them, the best they can come up with is that he was mayor on 9/11. That isn’t a qualification.

Curiosity abounds...who "demanded a ban"?

I'm not going to read this thread for you.

If you can't figure out who is trying to get people banned you are clueless.
