When is censorship OK?

[Peejay]

What is the value of censored debate? What kind of people take facts, verified facts, on the public record and hide them from view? Would that be fascism?



When illegal aliens are resopnsible for a high percentage of drug smuggling, do we hide that?

When biker gangs are responsible for particular crimes and violence, do we hide that?

When the Catholic Church uncovers rampant pedophilia, do they cover up? And what does that say about the people that covered it up?


Who do you personally hold more responsible, the criminals or the people that cover for them? Or is it equal? Are the people who cover the crimes guilty of conspiracy to the crime?

Who thinks the 1st ammendment means anything at all?

Censorship is ok only to the person that is doing the Censoring.

when you keep posting the same bullshit over and over and the threads get closed for the same subject because it is not factual, it has nothing to do with actual politics, it is only a lying hack not wanting to actually debate, rather point out how a allegedly a couple of hundred republicans over vast periods of time somehow constitute the ENTIRE republican party who has served or is just a member....

that is NOT an honest discussion and the board powers want honest discussions. you don't like it, feel free to leave.

I am speaking to the merits of censoship. Please do not question the authority of the board Administration in regard to specific censored information.

and another thing, the 1st amendment DOES NOT APPLY TO MESSAGE BOARDS when they are PRIVATELY owned....

read the constitution before you bitch about a message board peeinpants

 

[Article 15]

I think Gunny summed this topic up nicely the last time a poster tried pulling the same bullshit you are pulling right now.

It matters to plenty of people. For instance, I don't know of very many internet message boards that would tolerate some of the pure garbage you post. Surely if you want to try to back door an attack against the moderation of this board you can do better?

This is a privately owned message board. You have no rights. You have only the privileges extended to you by the rules of the board. If and when your opinion on those rules is desired, you will be asked.

Otherwise, if a moderator makes a decision, the proper course of action to appeal is to PM me. It is NOT to continue to try and re-post the same thread that has already been moved, nor is it to create a lame thread with a supposedly innocent and vague question when your motive is quite obvious to those involved in the situation.

Freedom of speech also does not include creating thread after thread on the same topic of whatever it is you happen to be obsessing about at the time.

Hope that clears it up for you.

This thread is getting locked.

The usual peejay spin. Nobody's hidden a damned thing. Your stupid post and baseless lies are plain for everyone to see, to include THIS one.

You have no 1st Amendment Rights on a privately owned message board.

The answer to your question is when you spam with board with your bullshit. Post another thread question my or any other staff members actions and you're going on vacation.
