    Best General Interest Forums: Physics Forum + Liberty Forum

    Really? I exhibited significant political incorrectness at Straight Dope, and they did not ban me. I found them to be as tolerant as Physics Forum. Basically, if one uses objective speech when putting forth political incorrectness, they will accept your posts. But, that being said, I do...
