Using the examples of the righties who have been kicked off, it's probably because they went way past acceptable, they went farther overboard than the lefties usually do. The lefties push it but know were to stop, some righties lose sight of that point and go past it and piss off the moderators too much.
It maybe be because they just don't know when to stop. It may be that they see a moderator as the opposition because he has a more liberal approach, who knows. I'm not criticizing the moderators at all or saying they are unfair, just the opposite.
I don't know of anyone who has been banned from this sight who didn't deserve it, ask for it, and who didn't have plenty of fair warnings.

Congratulations, you win the prize for stating the obvious.

Extreme righties are tools and trouble-makers. So are extreme lefties. Anything carried to an extreme becomes evil and anyone who becomes an extremist is seriously messed up no matter what the cause or position is.

It is possible for most of us to believe in something, support something, and feel passionate about something and still not become as asshat over it.
Those who can't exibit that self-control get banned.

You can see a good example of extremism every time there is a protest on TV. I consider most protesters to be misguided idiots and cowards who need to get a life, and without a doubt the vast majority of protesters are liberals. Every time I see protesters on the news I feel resentment and disgust towards them as if it were an auto-reflex.

Not sure why libs like to protest so much, maybe it's easier for liberals to tell others how they should live instead of looking at their own lives. Maybe it's just that libs think protesting is a good way to get more of something they didn't earn. "Take it away from them and give it to me because I make more noise."

IMO conservatives tend to concentrate more on how they live their own lives before worrying so much about what everyone else is doing.

I too think that all uncool, noncompliant, dense tool, misfit troublemakers who don't get along with others are trolls and should be kicked off of websites!

And congratulations to you! You win the prize for being oblivious (of, oh so many things)!

I disagree with that completely. Getting kicked off [Randy booted me from Rennlist without a reason that would hold ANY water in court~] of a website because of your posts is a badge of honor in my view. What's more, the boot-ee I suspect has shopping in mind more than anything else. They aren't interested in any sort of export!

So, instead of getting voted OFF an island, people are getting sent TO an island.
Could be fodder for a new reality show. I better call FOX quick!

Normy,

We know you keep trying, but we won't let em, just to mess with ya! This place would not be the same without you to pick on, or for that matter to be picked on by. . . .
