FR has always been volatile. There were flame wars since I joined. This has never been Miss Manners class.
There's nothing wrong with healthy flame wars when the participants have equal footing but now it has become one-sided. And ganging up on people and browbeating them into submission is not a "flame war". And you're one of the worst offenders. You and that clique you all ping each other to have chased more good conservatives off this forum than Jim himself has zotted. It's the truth.
