Members: Using phrases like shut up in a subject line constitutes inflamed rhetoric, barred by the list rules. Please don't respond in kind.
As for any orchestrated effort to stop war talk, it isn't happening here. There are many lists and forums in America to debate this serious topic. Our scope here in Minneapolis-specific, because there are few other places where local issues are prime. To be sure, the council item the other day put Iraq within our list scope. But in keeping with the rules, the focus must be primarily on whether or not the council should take the issue up. Of course, some opinion on the war is part of that, but not a primary part. Generalized war posts, pro or con, are outside of the list scope. This is a well-established standard long before this topic was born. Please respect that standard.
