What Percentage of Questions on the Law and Ethics Board?

I've noticed that a lot (>10%) of the questions on this board are merely psychotic people with an imaginary beef and too few meds. What do you guys think the percentage is?

I must admit, some are fun to read.

    Noo it's much lower for what you're referring to. Just a small percentage. A greater percentage are trolls, who, while they may have mental problems (I suspect most do), most do not have a 'beef, they merely have some odd obsession to annoy people. If you include those in your number, you could be close.

    I agree with Mutt, I seldom go over to Politics (it makes me feel dirty when I do), but that sections is close to 100% name calling and senseless diatribes. Religion and Spirituality is similar to Politics.

    Those questions are posted by TROLLS. There are quite a few, but it's no where as bad as the "Politics" board. On that board, you might be lucky to get 1 legitimate question out over 10 asked.
