Nobody said anything about "banning". Just consolidating similar threads. I do that all the time on a host of subjects. But, just think if we didn't have to worry about, let alone consider banning, woman-hating, rich or poor-hating or other-hating posts? Is all that hatred really productive?

Oh, come on. Conservative hating/bashing is half the fun around here (more so in Politics but a fair amount in OT and Money).

Or at least just only keep one that is "most helpful".

There's

"No thin people at my family reunion"
"Why are women unashamed to be fat"

Both are just threads ripping fat people apart. What do you think Jeff?
