Please, guys, those of you who want to fight, could you please step outside and do that, so the rest of us can work?
Just because you do not like an idea or are afraid of its consequences there is no reason to shoot it down with sarcasm or other violent methods. That is never helpful. If you have fears, which I see you all have, and for very good reasons, simply state the fears. Then we can talk about them in a rational manner and try to find a good, balanced and viable solution. Don't let the fears turn into aggression. And if you can, supply exact numbers and sources to help show how big a potential problem it is.
