I am assuming you all feel the same way about the endless drill thread and those that post there. I agree that it is easy to have negative perceptions about people who post political opinions on here (or anywhere else)if those opionions seem divorced from your own reality. So much so that one might not want to associate with or do business with them. For most of us it is better to be suspected of being a communist, or wing nut, than to put it in writing and remove all doubt.
