What did I say that wasn't civil and mature?

Nothing. I am just trying to head off any potential flame wars before they spark :)

I think you might be underestimating the difficulty of establishing a Science Olympiad chapter organization...

Gosh darn it people, stop making such a big deal about it Trump just says things he doesn't necessarily mean to say, if he kept his mouth shut, more people would take him seriously and actually listen to his ideas and policies (which actually might help America)

That's why people hate him. Because he can't keep his mouth shut. Maybe the nasty stuff he says doesn't apply to you but the group of people they're aimed at get hurt, a lot. So yes, it is a big deal.

His actual, real policies aren't the WORST, but he needs to grow up if he wants the entire nation to support him.

Everyone, if you actually want to discuss politics, please take it either to the politics thread (mods?) or to PMs

I can still remember read about the days when religion debates shouting matches infested even the most innocuous threads. It would probably be a bit better if political talk was confined to one thread (which is what happened with religious talk on the old board).

*shudder*

I'm attending college there. I really haven't been on in forever have I....
