I agree that it is taking some getting used to, but it is not totally out to lunch to think that we might set our own civility standards in these conversations in which we are trying to learn from one another without ever needing to worry that  laws are going to be made, or school curricula written or changed, by what we say here.

Take another look at your post. Make sure there is no name calling. If your post is about someone you don't like, don't treat them with disrespect. Make those changes, resubmit, and see if it flies.
