Uhm, actually it does. It is called moderation and prevents that people fight each other instead of discussing the actual topic.
The thread, about the Zimmerman case, went down fast and hard. All "sides" said what they had to say, opinions are very well known. At that point, simple discussions can quickly turn into personal fights - perfect time to lock it up.
