yers, quit putting words into my mouth.

And yes, mah, I do take it very seriously. Politics is very different from movies. There's no place for it here.

to take politics seriously is one thing, to have patriotism in such extreme degree that you get pissed because of a discussion is Stupid.

yers, I never said or meant that people here are immature; which you posted.

mah, being patriotic has never been more necissary. I get very angry when people don't know what the hell they're talking about.

A politic forum is just going to make people fight. We are from all over the globe, and we all have different views of government.

IMO, patriotism is never necessary.

we are from all over the globe, with different views, which will be interesting to hear. if people mean the opposite of me, I still think its interesting to hear their reasons, and learn more about what they think.

I can only concluse with THESE quotes and the other things you said, you think some people here are too immature to talk about politics... Because mature people are known to talk things out and resolve

mah, Why is being patriotic bad?

yers, again, you're putting words into my mouth. I respect the intelegence of everyone at this site. And yes, I do like to discuss politics, but a forum shouldn't be formed.

It should be kept in the GDF.

I am? ha!
You said politics are very serious, +
you said people would fight, +
it is known that mature people talk things out and resolve (theory of Köhlberg) =
People that will fight in the PDF are immature =
then some people here are immature

So, what EXACTLY did I do?

You like to discuss politics, but not a forum?
I thought, that if you LIKE politics, like you said you do, you wouldn't mind a forum

because I've seen how it can give certain people infinite support. in times of crizis, the leader of a patriotic people will have support for everything he says, no matter how stupid it is in the long run, just if he talks about 'defending this great country that we live in' or 'God bless America'.
patriotism can make people blind about bad sides of their own country.

(I dont want to provoke, or anything, sorry if you feel in any way hurt.)

mah, that is exsactly why we shouldn't have a politics forum. We are all very different people and have very different ideas of politics.

yers, politics should be elsewhere. Maybe from time to time, in the GDF, but not a whole damn forum.

It is a bad, bad, BAD idea. sad

Like I said, you don't have to go there, and please, don't come back with anymore "I don't want to censor myself" because it's chit chatting without making sense

(Bashes head against table)

Not saying things in a saying things sort of way is the sort of thing that really WILL kill a PDF, you know.

If I come to this site everyday and read contraversial posts in the politics forum, I will stop coming here.

Do you all want that?

Well, obviously not, but that said we can't allow that sort of thing to dictate what forums arew and aren't made; if enough people want it then it goes in, even if others would leave as a result.
