Now it's been a while that about half of the threads on these forums have turned into rants about a person being a Republican, ending usually in flaming or pointless insults. I think we should stop behaving like that for several reasons:

1. Politics has nothing to do with sex, pics, geek stuff, hair, food, or whatsoever.
2. Discrimination is unfair. You don't discriminate people for their nationality, their sexual preferences, or whatsoever. So stop bugging them for having a political conviction.
3. It has never been known as a good style of argumentation to flame someone using prejudices whenever he says something you don't agree with. In fact, that shows that you are running out of good arguments yourself.
4. In case you want to rant and flame about politics/Republican... make a thread here.

Just to make it clear and try to save myself from flames:
- no, I am not a moderator, I know. I just felt like this should be said somewhere.
- no, I am not a Republican in disguise defending myself.

I said the same thing somewhere else in the middle of somewhere. However, I don't agree that you can't descriminate against certain political stances. The reason being that people are not BORN republican... well sorta.

This is why I feel free to dicriminated against assholes, posers, bad drivers, and telemarketers.

You see its not that we dont like catknight because hes a republican... its just that we dont like catknight AND hes a republican. And being that theres soooooo many ways to poke fun at the GOP (need for viagra, ties with the "clan", Rush limbaugh) and the fact that THEY are usually the intolerant ones, its usually quite fun.

CatKnight (should) know I'm just fucking with him. I don't have anything against republicans, or anyone on this board (except our ignorant friends...), I just like fucking with people. My dad's a republican. Well, I don't like him either... My old english teacher was a republican. He was a good teacher, but I didn't really like him... shit, maybe I do have something against republicans... Naw, it's just republicans that claim logic and are just members of the Captain Obvious Elite Club.

Plus, it's just funny to add the republican thing. "Yeah, they guy just wouldn't shutup. I think he's republican." It's just funny!

My roommate, who is Republican, and I have had very heated argumentes about the difference in political views between Republicans and the rest of the world. But once I forget about a person's political affiliation, I get along great with them. So, if you want me to be nice to you, don't tell me your a Republican. Or tell me your a Republican, just expect to hear my views on your political choice. But like I said, some of my best friends are Republicans, so I don't view them as all bad.

CK, I'm always just fucking with you. It's just soooo easy to get a raise out of you.

Did I defend you with one word??? Someone who is old enough to have a political idea should be old enough to defend himself.

I am just pretty fed up with every thread turning into a politics-based flame. And yeah... I think so many against a single one is a little unfair.
