They get closed for a reason. Often, if we only delete certain posts, those involved in the argument/issue will just post new ones and the thread continues to spiral down.
I usually try and post a message saying that the thread has been closed and a new one can be opened with the same topic, provided that whatever caused it to be closed stays out of the new thread - i.e. personal attacks, language, etc.
The 'cops' thread was closed due to some racial posts and ensuing arguments generated over said posts.
