Computerhopes policy on political and controversial subjects goes like this:
Yes, you can certainly have debates on these things, however, leave it at debates.
If it even goes near argument from debate, the topic will be locked.
Other things that will cause it to be locked:
Topics that put minorities down, topics that users may find personally offensive, issues that can cause emotional harm, and anything that is just rude, obscene, or not considering others feelings.
We have "Unseasonably warm" weather here, do you know what we call it? A WARM FRONT! Especially considering that the west side of Washington had unseasonably cold weather for the same amount of time as the warm weather.
I dont think Global Warming is happening at the rate they think it is, and I think that its part of a cycle that we go through. I do think we should do things to slow it down, and that we should look at alternative energy.
