Yes Doug, that is true. They are all about free speech, but for the sake of keeping the pointless arguing to a minimum, posts that are only created for the sake of "raising hell" will be put in their proper place. The words are not, therefore, silenced; they're being put in the appropriate thread where people may view them of their own free will. Notice also that the thread will come back to the top for everyone to see.
      The way I see things is that people can just as well discuss controversial matter without resorting to childish namecalling or criticism. That is what I do not welcome here. If those (now closed) topics were to be left open, they would only act as a catalyst for further argument, and we would not see them leave the top of the post list for quite some time. Do you think that people can discuss any and all subject matter without resorting to the above forementioned?
      You are free to express all of your opinions. But I ask that if it is something directly from you to me, or anything else personal, put it in a PM or email where it belongs.
