From the controversy over rape. It still kind of rankles that one issue is considered more extreme than rape and therefore more likely to get a poster banned. I guess I wonder how to explain to the Admins and DU at large that if a poster is trolling on an issue like rape, there isn't a gray area. That person is 99.9% likely to be a right-winger.

Don't know if that makes sense...
