I have empathy for the moderators who have an unpaid job herding cats.
This isn't meant to be a criticism, I am relatively new here and seek guidance.
I understand that political discussions (as well as religious ones, or ones on the relative merits of Michigan State vs the University of Michigan) can lead to unpleasant conversations. But where does a discussion about a subject concerning a regulated activity become political? I ask because I don't want to waste my time typing things that you will waste your time deleting.
