Does it seem that there are so many posts, both recent and past, that have nothing to do with politics originally, but somehow someway, it ends up turning that way, bad mouthing affiliations & someone's personal sentiments / views????
We are here because we all are, have, or plan to file for bankruptcy - which means that your political views should be left out. You can grumble all you want to yourself behind your computer screen - but WHY is it necessary to blast every single thing you dont agree with and cast it onto everyone else on the forum? Grow up for crying out loud! If I wanted to listen to or read people's political views, tangents, and screaming fits - I'd turn on the news channels (yes ALL OF THEM) and flip through until my little heart was bleeding, or join a political forum where I could thrash & bash til my brain bled, thats my option and I have that control. HOWEVER - when I choose to read a post that has no political sentiment, yet somehow turns into a political rant against whatever someone's views are, it makes me want to stay away from this forum all together.
My thought is if you want to rant, rave and rage about he said/she said/he did/didnt do, then go debate in a political forum or ask that a political sub-forum be put into place on the BK forum, but please for the love of chocolate, furry critters and sunshine....keep it out of general discussion / BK topics.
(see..bet ya'll thought I'd put "please for the love of God / all that's holy" right? Nope - because inevitably someone would say "why does it have to be God/holy - I'm offended - religion has nothing to do with it!")
Bottom line is that I could care less if you are a right wing, left wing, radical to either side, halfway in between, libertarian, independent, war monger, peace loving, save the whales, gun toting, sign toting, union, non-union, rich, poor, county boy/girl, city slicker, colored yellow, blue or purple, Donk-ele-dent, alien from outerspace or ANYTHING IN BETWEEN. ...We all live here in this wonderful place called the USA - there is no other place like it in the world where freedom exists to our level; if you dont like it here/government/people/laws/etc, then keep that to yourself or move to another country, but dont bash it - remember your right to bash openly came at the price of lives lost defending your ability to have that right. Right, Left or In-between - each person today and in our history has made this country what it is today and without either party it wouldn't work. Birds have both a right and left wing - one without the other and it goes nowhere.
I'm sure I'm not the only one that must feel this way on here - however if I am, then I'll stand behind my convictions and line drawn in the sand regarding this post, while at the same time respecting your right to believe otherwise, and not bash you for disagreeing with me.
Thanks for the opportunity to post my frustrations / annoyances....
