4. About six percent of the purported democratic
community are complete and utter morons, far exceeded by the percentage of false flaggers, contemptible republicans who, like weevils in a beehive, for reasons of their own, pretend to be democrats and give us all a bad nane and the rabid right some more talking pouints.

5. I'd Say 1 Out Of 7. About 14%.
That's based on GD though and semi-frequent to frequent posters. I thought about maybe voting 20-30%, but upon second though concluded that many aren't actually morons, they're merely unskilled at debating context though they're capable in other ways. As far as being morons go, I reserved that judgment for those that can not only respond with anything else but personal nonsensical attack, but also those that have shown repeatedly that they cannot grasp simple logical context and are of too narrow a mind to ever see things objectively. I'd say that's 1 out of 7 tops.

9. I should have restricted it to GD because that (here) is where I hang out.
LBN, the Computer group and Cooking are about the only others I ever bother to look at. Based on -this- forum, my thought is around the 20 percent figure. Far less in the 'personal interest' groups...and around 90% in the 'lounge'
:D

6. 'I'm a moron
and this is my wife
She's frosting a cake with a paper knife
All that we got here's American-made
It's a little bit cheesy, but it's nicely displayed
Well, we don't get excited when it crumbles 'n' breaks
We just get on the phone 'n' call up some flakes
They rush on over 'n' wreck it some more
'N' we are so dumb, they're linin' up at our door


—Zappa

:patriot:

12. Locking
Flamebait

Inflammatory or Flame-Bait Discussion Topics

Do not post "flame bait" discussion topics. While there is no clear line regarding what constitutes flame bait, the moderators have the authority to shut down threads which they consider too rhetorically hot, too divisive, too extreme, or too inflammatory. Please use good judgment when starting threads; inflammatory rhetoric does not normally lead to productive discussion.

Do not start a new topic in order to continue a flame war from another discussion thread.

Here's a link to the rules to keep handy
