There should be room for people to disagree and debate, but we need a defined line with attacks that discourage people from posting at all.
Some people think posters will develop a thicker hide by being laissez faire with sin binning/bans, but I think putting down the hammer on personal attacks is what will actually accomplish that, because those consequences will make those posters think twice before posting their emotionally triggered garbage posts that target others, and eventually might adopt some tolerance.
