I never advocated censorship and don’t think I deserved that.
As a moderator I do my best to try to understand when some one finds something offensive and issues a complaint what would be the best way to approach the issue.
Sure, I could just tell the person I think you are wrong and have no right to that oppinion, people should say whatever they wish.
Its the free for all area and thats that. Anything goes. But would that be 100% fair to them?
I decided to let you guys know what was being said hurt some one else and they asked for us not to do it.
I made a request, I didn’t delete or edit the thread. I didn’t even move it to the Attic. I could have censored it, but I didnt. I tried to respect another members request and make a balanced response.
If some one approached me and said “People have no right to throw stones at President Bush. It’s Un American to question the President and I want this to stop now!” Then I would have told them to pound sand. That wasn’t the case.
I do my best, I wish I was capable of more, but Im not. I am sorry if you think that I am opposed to free expression. Or prefer ignorance to enlightenment. If that’s the impression I made then I must be doing something terribly wrong.
