I don't like the political statements made here by some posters lately. Such comments seem me to have become more frequent in recent months, and I think they endanger the open and frank discussion of binoculars and spotting scopes. This is Birdforum, not some political forum, and political statements in any shape or form are offtopic. Period. If you want to write about your political convictions, go to Ruffled Feathers or to a forum where such statements are welcome.
I do wish the moderators would step in and put an end to this now. If they don't, this forum will go up in flames as soon as people with different political persuasions step in to state their views. And they surely will if this doesn't stop. It's just a matter of time.
Also note that this is an international forum, and there are people from many different countries and cultures here who may have very different views of the world. Putting forward political agendas that are pertinent to just one country seems me to be quite offensive.
