    Removed Thread

    You may have notice that I removed a near-politcal thread of a recent topic. I did this on request of the threadstarter since a battle broke out, which was not his intention.
    Please respect that and the "political" rules.
    Best Regards, though.

    If i recall correctly it must be the 9/11 thread.

    I agree with Evan

    For all the tragedy involved it is by the very nature a political subject and best be moved to the appropriate forum.

    Yeah I figured as much. I saw that thread and avoided it! People have strong feelings about it and have got pretty angry, upset and argumentative. I've seen too many explosions over it in the past to avoid it like the plague!

    Yeah, I felt I was slapped down excessively hard by another poster just for trying to write a positive message to Tomcat. If this is what goes on regularly in Sarek's Lounge, I'm glad I don't subscribe to it.

    Hey Sea Tyger,

    Yea I liked your posted reply.

    Needless to say, the thread started to devolve into something that I didn't want - although I guess I'd be naive to think it wouldn't. But that was not its intent, I just wanted to salute my flag on a bad day, recognize our fallen, and thank people such as your self who serve in protecting this country.

    Anyway, I asked Evan to remove it so that it didn't get ugly - that is not why we come here.

    OK, before it gets ugly in here as well, I close this thread. Was meant as an information anyway and not really for discussion.
