Are we all equal??

[QPRDave]

Always happy to debate my position on any number of subjects.

We have to remember however, that we are having our discussions in a public forum, effectively the equivalent of someone else's house or business.

We all curb our language and behaviour dependent on where we are and whose company we're in , why should that be different on this board? Anyone can view these pages, and if the owners/mods want to keep the conversation civil, then that's their call, not ours.

People are fully capable of dealing with these contentious subjects without the nastier of the name-calling (although someone accusing me of being a Range Rover driver wasn't a massive insult, despite it's intent I wish....).

Wouldn't want anyone to leave this board, I really enjoy the debate, and the (gentle) ribbing that goes back and forth, despite being diametrically opposed to some people's views on a lot of social matters (and the perceived level of effort that Adel puts in )

Good post too Deepcut, very well put.
Can i just pick one point out of this post, the fact that you have said, it's Name Calling. That's the point isn't it?. Sticks and stones and all that?

Good post Rich,I'm not advicating that we use Nazi style language towards
any of these subjects, I know there has to be a line we can't cross,
but it wasn't that bad.

Cheers Dave.

This world is going mad. Can't say this, can't say that, can't do this, can't do that. Then the next breath you hear "it's a free world", more like "it was a free world"

People have different opinions and people should have freedom of speech. If we aren't too careful we'll end up in a world where you have to ask if you can say something before you say it, then it'll get even worse and you'll have to put in a request to ask if you can say something etc, etc....

Maybe I'm thinking into it too much

There's a very wide spectrum of name-calling though, that's why I mentioned the nastier element of it.

In the recent locked thread it was mainly pretty mild, save for a few slightly nastier ones. The tone of the nastier ones is usually all too obvious.

tbf I didn't think there was any real reason to lock that thread, unless there was something really nasty that I didn't see, but as I've said, it's not my website, so not my call to make.

[vblockranger]

I'm guessing those that contacted you weren't offended but were worried for those that would be offended. So my justification about stands

and that just about sums it up mate...we have a large contingent of apologists in this country and a couple of die hard apologists post on this forum
