[Hoot Gibson]

Well, that's the problem Hoot! No one can get in the political threads without every single subject devolving into 12 years old's calling each other names. I could give a damn about the political rancor, but when the best someone can do in their argument is call the other member names, who needs it!

Look, I'm not getting into a debate. Clean the forum up, stop with the personal attacks, or, as you have already suggested, We will shut it down. It's pretty simple, thus nothing more to say about it.

I have no intention of debating you.

If you think that punishing all the participants in the forum by closing it is the right thing to do and you actually have that authority, then just do it and stop making childish threats.
