I was about to jump back in, but I'll refrain now that you've made the request to drop the thread. -----Original Message----- From: amc-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:amc-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Frank Swygert Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2014 8:28 AM To: amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [AMC-list] Recent thread on cars/politics/etc. I'm going to start off with no, it's not tough. When a thread gets too far off subject I generally let it go for a bit until several people voice complaints. So let's drop this thread now -- it's time. That being said, if you read Ted's post it does stick mostly to the subject of government regulations against the car hobby. He does mention government regulating even God, but it wasn't totally out of context -- he was making the point that government can (is in his opinion) get too involved in our daily lives. He did make some of his views on government plain, but I don't think he was being too rash with his opinion. We all have one, and some will disagree with others no matter what. For the most part the post was old car hobby related in one way or another. Eddie posted the original message. It's not directly AMC related, but is old car hobby related. It's not too far off topic to post. We should limit discussion on non-AMC related topics though. Post it if it is old car hobby related, discuss a little, and let it die. If it goes too far or I see too many complaints I'll ask that the topic be dropped -- as I'm doing now. I expect to see a few more posts until everyone reads this then it will die off. So please be patient if you see a few more posts -- in 2-3 days the topic should be cleared. ======================================================== Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2014 20:34:40 -0400 (EDT) From:FordManTED@xxxxxxx To:amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [AMC-list] AMC-list Digest, Vol 60, Issue 7 Message-ID:<2ad59.6585bd1e.404fb426@xxxxxxx> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Tough In a message dated 3/10/2014 6:37:34 P.M.
