Ah, US politics. I suppose voting to remove would be the appropriate action.

I don't see how that contradicts voting to remove the message.

I thought the soiapbox was for just such topics. The flame wars is what I thought he didn't want. In any case, how is that thread inappropriate? I only read the first couple of messages in it, but everybody seemed well-behaved.

So ignore the policy and just wait and see if it upsets enough people or you happen to be walking down aisle 4?
