That point being that there is a line. There needs to be a line, somewhere, between free speech and hate speech and that line is being crossed. Not often, not in every thread, not even every day maybe, but it is an increasing trend that needs to be addressed before it gets totally out of hand. That is what my OP says. Draw that line BEFORE this gets way out of hand. The line is unclear and there is a huge problem looming, plenty of people can see it.
The problem with that TS if I can be blunt is that I think you're finger pointing and that is also not nice. Shutting down dialogue isn't the way. I used to agree with a lot of your posts until you began throwing round veiled accusations at people. I will agree with you that there are some posts that are inappropriate but so is all the finger pointing and it isn't always in the right place.

There are wise words in the post below also.
