how's this to put it into perspective? I don't like Obama, but everytime I see the whole "he isn't a citizen" issue, it makes me see red and I correct it. should that be ignored?
This is the thread:

He was asking if he had to let Amazon spy on his reading. Your reply to him was "why did you get a kindle?" which was obviously a troll post designed to stir up enough hatred for people to pick up their pitchforks. Then someone else said that it isn't possible for Amazon to see what books you read and it isn't possible for them to remove books from your Kindle.

If it makes you happy I will stay out of YOUR forum, but I agree with the OP that such pitchforking behaviour is detrimental to the whole site.
