I agree in this point, but the way it was handled I think it was
innapropriate because of the people complainig only two or three gave
suggestions on how to resolve it...

I support clean discussion and strong statements of opinion. But why some
complain about if they may say what they do or not, I think we're already

"cheap politics".
