43. How about civility in debate?

Rather than calling me names, insulting me in an underhanded way, we have civilized debate? Evidence? It is all over DU recently. I am not complaining about being DUers necessarily being nasty towards me, except for a few that took even this call for civility as an excuse to do so, but in general. How about we work together, debate civilly rather than nastily. Having friends, such as most on DU, reverting to calling each other "butthead" (for vague example) rather than engaging in the debate we are capable of, that is what makes me sad.
