    Perhaps those of us who have made comments on this Obama Legacy issue, including myself, should take a "deep breath" relax for a while and wait and see what takes place in the country during the next year or so...Right now most of us are very opinionated and want to share our likes or did-likes on the past and the future...Many have posted some sensible questions and comments, some not so good, but I for one have decided to just "wait and see"....Regards and ride safe

Anyway, sometimes I say things in a somewhat snarky way & people are unsure of how to take it (therefore my affinity to using lots of emoticons)
    If you follow these basic rules, you'll be fine:
    1. No personal attacks (calling the group m-fers counts as 'personal')
    2. No attacks on a member's family
    3. No attacks on a member's motorcycle (part of the family, in my world)
    4. Act your age, not your shoe size

    So basically, you have to consciously type a specific attack, and which if when reread a few times you would take umbrage if it was aimed at yourself, pretty much delete it and try again.
    Cheers,

    It will tale longer than a year or so Opas... the Democrats are going to try to stall and thwart Trump's/the Republican's agenda at every turn in the road.

    Bet on it.

    They even let boorish, assholes like me play here.
    If you are not part of the solution, YOU are the problem.

    Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty.

    Apparently not enough. That's how we got Obomination Care, spineless Republicans.

    That may be the most accurate statement you've made yet! There were 16 of them standing on a stage together just a year ago!

    I don't know about you, but I'm laughing!

    Welcome and thanks for sharing your opinions. I found that particular section you wrote interesting, because the difference I see today between liberals and conservatives is the level of free speech each side affords one another. Safe spaces, microaggressions, trigger warnings come exclusively from the left. To me it's sad that the thought even crossed your mind that you might be punished for thinking differently than the moderators on an Off Topic forum. Part of the reason Trump won, I think, is because of the constant, stifling attacks on free speech from Academia, Hollywood, and government.
