Guys... let's keep this mature and open minded. There has already been one thread made suggesting this is becoming a very one sided debate and I can also see that from the posts that are appearing here.
remember that people are entitled to an opinion. Just because their opinion doesn't necessarily fit in with the norm doesn't mean that it is any less valid. For example, there are a number of religions that believe that it is ok to rape women because of how they dress. Many folk from western countries feel this is outrageous however, for those people who live that way, it is the norm and they know nothing else. They have been brought up from birth with these beliefs and have had no other influence to say otherwise. There are people in western society who even with contrary beliefs surrounding them, they also feel the same way.
You cannot condemn a person for having an opinion, no matter how much it differs from your own. Preventing a person from expressing an opinion because you don't feel it to be nice because it is not inline with your views is very much depriving someone freedom of speech and their right to engage in discussion.
At TamaTalk, we wish to foster mature discussion of ideas and opinions. This means allowing everyone to speak! There will be no ONE SIDED debates here.
You guys control whether this thread stays open or not.
Also... something to keep in mind with these threads.
1) If you are likely to get emotional, just walk away. It is not worth getting into a flame war. Leave the thread alone, go do something else and then come back to it. If you still feel strongly and are likely to have a go at someone (rather than what they have said), don't post.
2) Either that, or learn to argue with your head and not insults. Keep things factual and if you can, back up your arguements with links or whatever else you can find.
The ball is in your court... consider this your final warning!
