-+-{Important TFP Staff Message}-+- NM, you've not been here long enough to understand how we operate here, and if you did, you'd understand that I'm not banning anything. I'm MODERATING the thread. A number of people already brought this to the staff's attention which is what brought several of us to watch this thread. There is nothing wrong with having opinion and no facts. Absolutely nothing wrong with it. In fact, I am the biggest proponent of such kinds of posts in the Politics forum. The problem with that is after a number of times a person posts "this is my opinion" and people dissect the opinion against known facts and peer-reviewed journals it leaves little to nothing left to discuss. Thus it becomes a "I'm right and you are wrong" discussion with no wiggle room to move the conversation in any manner. I specifically asked you for you to repost your links twice, once with no moderation hat on, and once with.
