When Congresswoman Giffords got shot in the head in Arizona and other people got killed (including a nine year old girl), I quoted the father of Giffords as blaming the Tea Party. I just brought up the idea that the Tea Party ideology might have led to the shooting of Giffords. Also, the Palin targeting propaganda that had Giffords in the middle of a gun sight.
When I made the point of how inflammatory conservative rhetoric may be used as an excuse to start blowing away democrats and liberals, I got threatened by a mod (can't remember who) for targeting a GROUP OF PEOPLE. So, I deleted all my discussions and posts on that thread, and let everyone else debate, just because I got threatened with a ban.

If I happened to say the Klu Klux Klan was bad for the things they did or believe...would it have gotten the same treatment? They are a group of people too.
I don't see how pointing out the flaws in people's or groups of people's beliefs is considered flaming or targeting a group of people.
Note: Woodruff did have a good discussion going in that thread before it died off.
