Bringing up touchy subjects

    Just came back on after a few days and read the debate that was going on about social welfare claims to non nationals ... And seen so many people saying "oh god mods will you lock this thread" And the only reason I think they want the thread locked is because they don’t like what they read and that there’s an actual debate going on (and I don’t just mean about that topic i mean about any legitimate debate that might be about a taboo subject)

    People are free to debate on boards what they couldn’t debate in public and read both sides and maybe turn some racist people into non racist people, maybe clear up some myths or maybe the other way around and open some peoples eyes.

    The mods this time did not lock the thread which I must applaud, but I’m not going to post on it again but i really just must ask these people who sit on boards.ie who intentionally and by there own free will click on these threads and then just complain to close down an open debate ... why click on the thread? its not a popup, you have the power! By just posting TROLL TROLL your actually not adding to it and in turn your trolling.

    I know this is going to get slated by the very people I’m talking about(probably filled with thesaurus words that make them think there smarter then the rest hah! or maybe point out some spelling/grammer mistakes) and basically I’m just going to skip over the reply’s that are just pointless but i will take time to read the actual reply’s and try see it from there point of view, and if it gets out of hand ... I JUST WONT CLICK ON THE THREAD :)
