These types of comments that are directed towards another member (calling them out, so to speak) are one of the things we are seeking to avoid. 

Whatever the ill feelings are between you two, I suggest you PM each other and work it out so that it doesn't follow around the threads.

You should be allowed to insult people who deserve it.  If you have a really stupid point - you ARE stupid (or at least very ignorant).

There are a couple of lines drawn here.

1) You can't insult other members in this forum. That will not change. We have had too many threads devolve into pissing matches where people insult and threaten each other. If that were happening and nobody cared, that would be one thing. But the fact is that we have had so many complaints about it from the quiet majority that we have had to step in and insist on this. We have had multiple complaints from people who tell us that they are afraid to express any of their ideas in this forum because they fear that they personally will be attacked. The whole purpose of this forum is that people would have the ability to express and discuss their opinions freely. There have been many calls, even among other Mods, to close this forum permanently. Enough calls that it is fair to say that this policy is one of the only things keeping the forum open.

2) We have the Political Jokes and Memes thread where you have an outlet to slam political figures, parties, ideologies, etc. You just can't slam other members and you have to watch your language a bit.
