Real-world sensitivities and game names

Ich, you're a moderator. You might want to avoid calling people's arguments bull****. And possibly just avoid the incipient gun control flame war entirely? Until it's time to shut it down.

Gun control has been brought up. A flame war is probably inevitable, but I'd think the moderators should avoiding fanning the flames.

To All: Going further down this path is a bad idea. We've all been through it before. There are places far more appropriate and it'll just get shut down here.

So maybe "bad comparison" would have been more politically correct. That's just syntax, but not semantics.

I certainly don't plan to discuss gun control here and my post didn't mean to encourage that. As far as I'm concerned, I haven't been discussing it so far, anyway, what I did was point out a nonsense comparison of apples and oranges. That's what was really itching me, not the actual subject.
