How about a politics forum? Keep it seperate from everything else? It could be a chit-chat subforum. Read it if you want, forget it even exists if you don't. Everyone is happy.
If the ACLU thread were under that forum, the same problem could've occurred. Relabeling its category does nothing to change the fact that rude posts could be made. Some people will certainly not look at that forum, but I think many more will. Perhaps since the chit-chat forum is an island apart from the rest of the forums, different moderators could be employed to monitor it than the rest.

Whats rude to you may be acceptable to someone else.

What if... a sub category was created that could only be viewed by MEMBERS of the forum who chose to be a part of it. So, new members would never even see this forum, or knew it existed until they read a certain sticky thread and signed up to be able to read it.
