So, I guess it could be that the only way to keep the truth about the TSA from getting out would be to shut down the forum completely.
Personally, I enjoy the exchange of ideas and information on this forum, including posts from people with whom I disagree.
It's amazing the you only quoted a very little part of my post.
For some reason you chose not to quote the following:
1. I also don't like what's going on...
2. I'm more than willing to debate, whether I agree or disagree with somebody as long as they present a valid point. Name calling is not a valid debate, it gets old very quickly and turns people off.
That's all some of us are saying. Just like you I don't want any forum shut down, but I could see why Randy is posting a warning. I have learned so much from all the different forums over the last few years, including this one, but recently I hardly visit this one anymore because it basically became TSA bashing only, with viscious name calling and no real new debatable information.....YMMV
