Politics and religion talk have no place in bars or forums. Too personal for the people involved and no one is willing to back down from their beliefs on either subject.

As Greg knows I like to talk politics. I've had my hand slap at AZ more then once for doing so. When you do it flame wars are going to happen. If we had a Poltical Issue Forum anyone going in would know what they are getting into. If you don't want to play that then don't go in.

After last nights election results I can barely contain myself.

However, I do see the down side of a political forum, but we could try it and see how it goes,

We considered a separate political forum on AZ. We even considered making it private so anyone wanting to participate had to ask to be specifically let in. I believe the consensus was that AZ is predominantly about skiing and including politics did not add enough value to justify it. I'd be willing to add one here if you guys want - again, this is your chance to make changes.

IMO zero good will ever come of that forum. IMO

No politics just asking for more problems like last week,as far as religion ,God is always getting pushed aside as not to offend others, I say God Bless America and the foundation that this country was founded on. If you don't like it go chat or ski in some other country.

I'd like to to reVote please, this time "no politics". Talking politics could be the fastest way to get link cut off from Whiteface.com website.

Demand a recount! 8)

I love to talk politics. But. Plenty of places to talk politics. I don't want to risk having this important resource shut down.
