I'll take the opportunity here to direct you to a thread just below this one Judy, entitled



This particular thread included comments from "both sides of the fence." And yet, it was conducted in good humour and in an adult manner. There was no name calling. No calling me "Herpes." No calling Hermann a Nazi. No mention of being anti-American. And at the end of the discussion, everything was left in good humour.



Problems arise when certain individuals make childish remarks and do not respect the opinions of others. If somebody does not have time to make posts then that simply needs to be respected. It is only a recreational thing afterall. I highlight my own recent absence and the unnecessary jibes made towards me for example.



Now not being funny, but I constantly see the most polite posts coming from eth anti-war side. We may not have all the answers, but we are voicing an opinion. Whether people like it or not, we have the right to an opinion! I am yet to see anything in recent months that makes me think the war was a good idea, but I admit I may be wrong. I am one individual and my sources of intelligence are limited.



This is an open discussion forum. We can talk about what we like. There are plenty of other forums here to talk about reptiles. Anytime I have ever mentioned the environment here I have been slated! People seem to forget that an interest in snakes normally goes hand in hand with an interest for the environment and our planet. At least that's how I see it.



Anyway, good luck with your forum!
