I see "most popular articles don't belong" as excepting things like, say, assassination of a President or a 9/11 happening. And it can be useful for people to talk about and figure out what's happening.

But looking through the thread, most people aren't posting information. They are debating policy at a time when emotions are (validly) hot. There are lots of places on the Internet where one can debate political policy (and I love doing so), so it seems weird for it to be here.
