LS I'm in 100% agreement I dont mind banter or genuine criticism of any subject so long as the objection is not based on simple bigotry, I dont like it, but I'm opened very worried about us starting down the same slippery slop the other forums went. Many of our members came to this haven of common sense from forums simply because of excessive moderation and a few fools who were offended by absolutely everything.
Slippery slopes in both direction NR Bigotry on one side and censorship on the other.
We need to act responsibly to keep the freedom of speech, and not allow bigotry to take a hold as a result of that freeedom.
