Do you object to mildly controversial off topic discussions on BMT? This includes politics, religion and stuff like that. Of course we are not going to allow full blown, knock down-drag out debate to rage within our pages, but we do have a lot of members that want to discuss these topics in a adult manner with their peers. So lets put it to a vote!

Keep in mind that these topics are only in the off topic forum. All other forums are for on topic discussions as usual.

I don't mind .......... I can decide real quick if I want to continue to read the subject and or comment.. It is better than haveing the big cop deleting messages and deciding what is right and wrong for me.
But just don't say off colored comments about the Mack trucks of the good old days!!!!!

Yeah well I got real problems. I gotta get different and better fitting "big boy pants" as these are starting to leak at the elastic leg gathers, and the plastic sounds crunchy. Rob
