Default Removed Thread?

I was rathing enjoying this thread...why was it pulled? I feel like the Democrats have taken over here. I really don't feel that removing certain threads enhances the value of this site.

I suggest that you leave politics out of your posts...

What was the content of the thread. I can't find it anywhere.

The thread was the VTX vs. Harley...

It was getting out of hand. The forum is not about bashing bikes of another brand, nor bashing Harleys. The thread started hasn't logged on since it was started.

It was removed.

I'm tempted to question Fryeca as to what political party affilliation had to do with either that thread or its removal...but I'll play nice and be polite and simply say two things:
1. Don't worry, Fryeca, Ragin' Republican will be back as soon as he gets his computer back up, and:
2. I think that their is room on this Forum for discussion of other makes and models. Personally, I'd like to see more posts like Ironheads on Kawasaki's. Maybe it's all in the pictures. <G> Art

Sorry for the political Connotation, I should have realized at my age that this usually stirs up confrontation.
None was ment and to explain myself would further invite much of the same banter.

I was following the thread for a few posts and and I guess it got out of hand at some point after my last viewing...remember folks, there is some translation lost when only words are read, there is nothing like the nuance of the spoken word.
I guess that's why we have smileys?

Fryeca,

No problem, the thread started to go south. I watched it, and was interested as well. When the flames start and we quit playing nice, we kill it.

Open discussions are welcome, flaming is not.

Thanks for clearing everything up, and, no offense taken on the political affiliation...
