After kicking it around, we've decided that you've handled this yourselves and an official warning/temp ban isn't needed.
BUT!
Please do not call each other's posts "Bullshit", nor each others opinions, beliefs or hair styles (even if it's a comb-over).
Part of what makes debate possible is expressing strong feelings without attacking the other party (which I know can be difficult).
But that is EXACTLY what needs to be done and what some of you have done very well.
In any event, thanks to those who have addressed that issue and not fallen into return flames.
To the rest of you, please either a) stop or b) take a break from "Politics".
Any other course will be deleterious to your TFP access privileges.
