"Once you post any political realms, you just lost all credibility with any and all who disagree with you. Why would you bring that to an audio forum? "
Good question.
I also belong to the Acoustic Guitar Forum. Either it's rigorously moderated or folks over there are actually more interested in talking about guitars than trading insults. (What a concept!) I've perused it pretty much every day over the course of a year and have yet to encounter a single political reference.
