Default NG deterioration

This news group is metal working.
Not politics or dribble.

It is without doubt that this dribble has brought down more ISP's
than RIAA.

I have to take good pictures of my Boring head ball turner. [ metal content]

This NG seems to have deteriorated into mostly OT and a lot of name
calling that sounds like an elementary school yard environment. Its a
shame. I'm reminded of an adage that says:

What exactly is a newsgroup anyway? It's just a bunch of people putting
their thoughts up for all to see. If there is a sense of deterioration
that's simple, it's a matter of who is doing the posting. From my
experience, the problem is that so many right wingers are in the group
and can't contain themselves from making negative comments about
"liberals". Then people respond to the attacks and it goes back and
forth from there. If the right wingers would keep their political views
to themselves you would see the "deterioration" stop right away. But
that will never happen. They are so emotional they can't keep anything
to themselves.
