One day I’m sure I will be surprised to discover that the Off-Topic Forum is cancelled. Censorship is a sure way to tamp down dissent. I wish we could get debate where both (all) sides come armed with facts, history, civics, economics, and philosophy. However, on this forum one side of the debate frequently finds themselves stranded without a basis for their argument. Then, when canned phrases don’t qualify as support, name calling and personal attacks spring up. While I find such non-sequitor to be annoying, I keep coming back to hear from all sides.
