    I hope the moderators will experiment with very brief bans.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    I’ve seen a TB issued for saying only “I disagree.” Now, that was a tPF designated thread.

    The mod who received that request should have denied it.

    Thread bans are interesting, given that the OP can request one for virtually any reason--or no reason--on a tPF thread.

    It might be more interesting if the banner and the bannee had to get in a ring and spar a bit. Maybe the banner should have to write an explanation, such as "I requested a ban of so and so because they made me sad," or something. That way we'd know why it happened.

    I think the one-day threadban is best.

    No one is calling out a specific mod. A rule being questioned. If you can't handle that, you can always avoid the discussion.

    I marvel at the level of stupid one might find in your post.
