Most of the threads get seriously heated and make it difficult or uncomfortable to state opinions in fear of upsetting someone who views things in a different light.
For that reason I'm going to go for swine flu as it didn't get heated so much, and people were even able to join in laughter over how many ridiculous puns we could make for it.

Swinnnne Flu! Best debate topic of the year. xD Religion, Abortion, Homosexuality, and Gun Rights have been around for a few years, I think. It's something that the general will always talk about no matter what. Plus the swine flu didn't really get out of hand like other controversial topics, which was good to see.
I went with "Marijuana yes or no?" because that stayed civil. Some debate threads can be sensitive and others can create a lot of discord, but I think this one manages to not be sensitive or uncivil. Swine flu is a good canidate too, but the scare is basically over which sort of makes it a non-debate issue now.
