[QUOTE="Oldhoopster, post: 7619995, member: 84179"]I think you're right, it's probably too political. Keeping political opinions and name calling off a numismatic site is important, especially if they have rules against it. While we all have political opinions that cover the spectrum, we have one thing in common, numismatics. Political comments, REGARDLESS of ideology have no place here. Doesn't matter if they are overt, in your face like the ones that derailed the original thread, or subtle jabs and snarky references to the other side. THEY DON'T BELONG. Note: I'm not being critical of the topic and some members have made some good points without resorting to name calling. [B][COLOR=#b30059]If you feel it is a worthy topic, why derail it with a political statement[/COLOR][/B]. Based on your first sentence, you knew this was political, but chose to ignore the the rules and potentially inflame others. For what purpose? I hope everyone will avoid politics on this board and report violations to the mods instead of taking actions into their own hands. Sorry for the rant.[/QUOTE]
