I imagine it as a child of this one. Completely free speech more or less. This forum here would continue as a moderated political forum with civil discussion only.
And have a separate Free Speech or Free For All forum that is clearly marked un-moderated, excepting in extreme cases....violence, pornography, criminal activities, that sort of thing.
This idea was a combination of my original thought and the italicized above that was PMed to me. I will give him credit if he wants it. So you could have that forum for political issues that you want to be nasty with. I would just say the only thing I don't want to see are things that would be legally bad. Like no threatening other posters, no calling them out to make them go in there. Your participation in there would be completely your choice. I think it would be a cesspool if it is used, but some people clearly need to get this stuff out of their system on a daily basis that they don't feel they can be civil for very long in here as I have requested multiple times.
It is a thought. I don't want to be so stifling that people leave because of it, but at the same time, there are real desires among many others to keep the PF civil.
