Politics - to resume or not to resume?

Dear Members,
Thank you for your restraint over the last one week. Sadly, we suspended at least 10 members who couldn't hold themselves.
We realise TNA adherents have stubborn positions, just as CORD supporters are die-hards for their cause. None can convince the other! Any independents in the community are drowned out by the chants from either side.
Our dilemma relating to the resumption of politics is whether it's now possible for independent respectful discussions to take place. We would love to believe Wazua can be an example, and rise above the tribal sewers in social media.
As a start, is it feasible for us to only list/link to political news items from tomorrow?
- without inserting our anti-Uhuru/anti-Raila sentiments
- without purporting to adjudicate supreme court cases
- without restating a position more than once
- and at all times respecting our opponents

Once you resume politics, 4 things will happen: 1. TNA will claim RAO is nuts; 2. CORD will claim TNA are thieves; 3. Both sides will discuss the petition to death, everyone pretending to be a lawyer; 4. The above 3 steps will be repeated ad naseum. Here we go again... Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming

Yeah, let the ban be indefinite. Close the politics section. Things are hotter now than than they were on March 4. Infact, there was no justification for the ban as the post-polls period was largely peaceful but now things are hooot!
