We have always preferred to let people argue politics elsewhere.

...and many of us here thank you for that Leon. This is one of the few places I can get away from all the Political BS.

I agree. There are more than enough other places to go and debate politics if and when one wants.
Personally, I'd prefer not to know anyone's politics on this board, and am happy for others not to now mine. Last edited by drcy; 07-31-2018 at 02:23 PM. |

My mother always told me to never discuss politics or religion in public as everyone already has an opinion you will never change and it is as fruitful as banging your head against a wall and hoping it will start to feel good. I once made a slip years ago, not doing it again. Thanks to Leon for keeping it this way and eliminating the building of ill-will against another forum member simply because they disagreed in the voting booth.

I've got 15 or so Trumps and they've been very difficult to sell, but all of the sudden over the past couple of weeks I've sold 2 and had a few other inquiries.
Good to see that turning around finally. If you are interested in any feel free to click the link in my sig line and ferret around on my page. Last edited by thenavarro; 07-31-2018 at 07:31 PM. |

Politics is now a sport. Turn on all the nightly political shows and they look like ESPN Sportscenter. Tickers, roundtable discussions, analysis...pretty soon they'll bring out the telestrator and start drawing on the screen when a politician is giving a speech.

I made the mistake of assuming a fellow dealer was simpatico with my political viewpoint. While we're still friendly, my mistake definitely strained our relationship. Lesson learned.

That being the case, perhaps you should change the name of this thread to "Donald Trump autograph opinion." "Donald Trump opinion," by itself, sounds like it's going to be an opinion about Donald Trump.

Its truly sad that in today's world, people with differing opinions can't even have a calm discussion anymore.

Some "opinions" aren't amenable to discussion, Jim. Calm or otherwise.
For example. "Are Nazis bad?" Want to argue the "no" side? |

It's Leon's right to not allow certain topics.

It certainly is.
I only mentioned that a separate section in another forum I participate in had a section where discourse on any subject was available. If people don't want to read opinions on controversial subjects they just avoid the separate section.

There is nothing more uncommon than common sense, unless it's common courtesy. There is very little civility left in our civil discourse.
