Just keep in mind that political discussion, like religion, is a very volatile subject and people are hardly likely to concede to the another persons views.

So just watch any personal insults and remember we are friends here no matter our political views.
lol I was hoping you wouldn't lock it anyway, I was joking

I am willing to concede only on someone's view in the face of overwhelming evidence, or maybe on something fun, like the relative tastiness of various treats or mixed beverages. Personally, my fiancee's uncle's creations vs anything else is a good topic for discussion.

Besides, if there are gonna be personal insults exchanged, SiFi will tell me next time he sees me. (thursday?)
