Should I delete comments?

Normally I would say let the comments stay, be they negative comments or postive comments. However, on one of my Triond articles, they seem to be degenerating into comments about a two word "F*** cats" comment, a comment about the "F*** cats" comment and the comment commenting on that comment, and I suspect that if I let this go on, I'll be looking at a comment flame-war... Here's my article link http://www.purpleslinky.com/Humour/Animals/10-Reasons-Why-Every-Home-Should-Have-A-Cat.249217

I think it's better if you deleted this kind of comments. They don't bring anything good to the discussion, it's just some idiot talking nonsense...

Thank you for your reply. Luckily, the comments that came after those were good ones, so I think it should be okay now. I was afraid it would degenerate into one of those " you're an idiot, no, only people who call people idiots are idiots, no you're an idiot and here's the reason why," and turn the comments section into one of those battlegrounds for a pointless flame war.

Ah! What a very cute article! I'd definitely delete those comments if I were you. There's nothing constructive about them at all.
