I don't think we need to keep score over who is right and wrong
I think opinions should be debated and well defended. But if someone had a rationale argument that ended up being wrong what's the issue?

"Community policing" as in the collective community taking it upon itself to maintain a certain quality or position, not as in badges, handcuffs, and prisons. I didn't think I'd need to explain that term to you, but I guess that teaches me to make assumptions.
As for the rest, opinions and viewpoints are fine: I think... IMO... That leads to quality debate, as it inherently recognizes the validity of other viewpoints.
But hardline statements: There is no... I guarantee that... and following up with belittling or dismissing those who disagree is a different matter.
Do you want a board full of Don Cherrys or Kelly Hrudeys?
