Thanks. Some days I wonder why it is so difficult to explain something so simple to some people. I think there is a saying something to the effect that " you can't see the light because the chip on your shoulder is so big".

Sometimes thoughts can be taken multiple ways, especially if insufficient words are used to make sure there is very little or no ambiguity in what is intended to be said.

Are you seriously claiming that you did not know that implying that people associated with one of the two major political parties are unpatriotic is a political comment, not to mention an insulting and provocative one? Hard to imagine.

It didn't bother me as there is SO much crap flying around anymore. It seemed mild. Almost to the point of being a political joke. It didn't bother me anywhere as much as some other stuff does. For some of the comments I just I laugh. For other comments and philosophies- I feel bad for my children and grandchildren.
It appears SOP for politics, each side calls the other derogatory name(s) and tries to defame.
Just look at the comments made about both Trump and Obama.
Each side is belittling the other, and trying to see who can outdo who. Like I said, SOP,
but things have become much worse with the advent of the isolation and anonymity of social media.
Various news outlets are no better, just listening to their method and enunciation of delivery and what and how they report.

The choices are A) to ignore it, B) to get into arguments that have nothing to do with photography, or C) to request that political discussions be moved to the Attic section. I have decided to take the third option.

Hence, I wrote "political posts belong in the Attic section. Thanks." You jumped into the fray, posting your thumbs up and thumbs down and feeding fuel into the fire, and then claimed you didn't understand what I meant when I said "political posts belong in the Attic section. Thanks." I don't think you are being honest.

OK.....not aware of the attic section....but just repeating what they openly espouse is"provocative"?
Appears the US f**g is provocative.... Just ask Kapernick......,

There are all sorts of places where you can go to engage in that sort of childish behavior.

Great post Stevey, the f**g can and should be posted wherever you wish. Lucky guy to live in the great state of Texas. These farmers are the people growing the food, and the the f**g represents the millions that have sacrificed everything for everyone in our country. The washed up football player you referenced and other socialist types are free to move out to another country they prefer. If not for the farmers and patriots most of the complainers would not exist.

Your subject is well received and your composition is commendable, but your politics are a little over exposed.

Hmmm. Must be one of those Demos'.

I started and monitor an RV web site over 18 years ago, it is still going strong. I do not let politics, religion or any controversial subject ever become a topic of discussion. It is not worth it, people start hating each other and you can lose your friends.
I am very patriotic and love our f**g and our country. Let's be nice.

It’s a shame that someone posts a nice photo and someone else starts whining about politics.

So, if your beef is with that K person, why not take it up with him directly instead of involving everyone on this forum with a misdirected over generalized ridiculous meme? And I am not a Dem, just a lone crusader fighting stupidity wherever it raises its ugly head.
