As for not being able to discuss the Ukrainian issue on AULRO, you can, in the appropriate area. Just as you can wander around a nudist camp, naked; whilst Spencer Street is not the appropriate area.

Yes, apologies to Hodgo.

A spurious analogy. The events in a place I cannot name are front page news worldwide. Even Google allows discussion of them.

The problem is not discussion, it’s the resulting emotional melee. If all forum members were capable of a rational and dispassionate discussion of these issues, CA wouldn’t be necessary.

Never discuss politics or religion. It always goes south.

Amen to that

I now need cover my butt as I am held responsible for the content posted on the forum

Therefore contentious issues need to be addressed in a non public area

CA is the place to do that

Sadly thats the nature of the beast these days

Can only tell it as it is and if people cannot live with it then so be it... I don't want anyone leaving but I also need to cover my butt

Thanks for your support.....

It is important and then we can laugh Some people take it a bit far with butt covering Not you SIR

JT, this place will be poorer for your absence, so please rethink your desire to leave. We cannot change your mind of course but, even though you have not met most of us, we are all your friends.

I get Inc's situation, if someone on here writes something that someone else takes the wrong way or is just defamatory or fits into other avenues of legalese. Then it is Inc left holding the subpoena, and nobody wants that to happen.

I'm not in CA either, like Saitch I don't see the point. Discussing politics/geopolitics and the like is like masturbating with a cheese grater, slightly interesting, mostly painful.

cheese grater?

a flat one or a round one?....maybe thats a zester....
