Without this nonsense, who would know who he is? Even I do, and I could give a rats behind about football. |

This is a Corvette forum. I don't agree with Colin Kaepernik or other scumbags that don't appreciate the USA. [emoji631] I also disagree that this is not the Forum to voice those opinions. [emoji108]

I think I just changed my mind on this issue of whether to post political views anywhere on this forum.
Sure, it's labeled "Off Topic" and you should be able to discuss anything under the sun, but maybe there's value in ignoring all the hot button issues that might separate us, and just talk about what brings us together. Like the real kick we get from driving these unique cars. That's why my sig says, "it's about the car, not the people". That's the flip side of the sig. by the late Doug Johnson, who said "It's not about the car, it's about the people". Which to me was about the brotherhood of the ZR-1 owners. But mine is different because I think we need something to agree on in these days when so many forces are trying to pull this country apart. Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry

I have many friends, and each has their own unique thoughts on most all hot, luke-warm and cold button issues, as do I.
I do not restrict my friends to only those that think like me, which I am sure many might be thankful for. I do not dislike or heaven forbid, hate those that think differently from me. My views have evolved from listening to what friends think, and seeing if it alters my view. Oftentimes it has. Living in an echo chamber would be very boring. The intent of "Off-Topic" is to allow and foster such discussions. They should not be restricted unless they turn into attacks of the members. We are grown-ups here, right? We are not forced to read or join in, but it is good to converse with each other even when we have differing views. I try to avoid evil people, not different ones. I learned that in grade school and it has rarely failed me. Keep it civil, and listen with an open-mind. Life is learning. ![]() Marty |

Unfortunately, it appears that there are some members of this forum who feel that any disagreement with their beliefs entitles them to personally attack the person who disagreed.
Perhaps, as some other forums have done, we should seriously consider doing away with the Off Topic area altogether. While that may appear to be somewhat harsh, there have been several recent incidents some starting out very innocently that have morphed into rhetoric and mud-slinging. Just my two cents. |

Florida Posts: 2,698 ![]() While this forum is and always has been dedicated to ZR-1's, the OT section is here for everyone to discuss anything they like such as entertainment, current events, politics, sports, etc. Most thriving forums have an active OT section, so I'd encourage our members to use it more often. You might find that others here have similar interests that you can discuss besides a love of Corvettes. So when you read a post in the OT, post a reply now and then, or start your own topic. ![]() Seems to be the very reason OT was created in the first place. Like a television, if the program does not appeal to one, you only need to change the channel, not delete it. ![]() Marty |
