drummindiver Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Charles Anthony has a very obvious agenda of steering the conversation to his point of view. He also deletes topics he may not agree with, not allowing for free and uncensored dialogue. I find this censorship on an open, political forum fascist. Delete away, CA.

Big Guy Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 I use this board as a guest. When I am a guest in a persons home I act as expected a guest would act. If I do not then I could be asked to leave or I can leave on my own. Why would you expect a home owner to change the way they run their house to satisfy the questionable desires of a guest? Sometimes the host has to ask someone to leave who is creating problems and there is a danger that many other guests will leave because of the belligerent guest.

So, now I am belligerent for having an opposing point of view? Please, "questionable desires of a guest"? Are you for real? This is an open political forum, supposedly non-partisan. My only desire is unfettered, unbiased discourse on politics. Your analogy does not hold water in least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestCoastRunner Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) I didnt even know how to spell dummy until you showed me. Actually you did call a few folks dummies and red necks but many of us have fallen into the same trap. I don't know what Drummindiver is whining about. He really has no assurance that none of us haven't been warned a time or two to dial down our insults. Drummindiver seems to believe that he is the only one that is singled out. I assure you, that you are not. You just take it more personally than anyone else. Edited May 11, 2015 by WestCoastRunner Quote I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels.

You are an outright liar. You called people dummies (your spelling) yesterday when ppl did not agree with your argument. The only time I ever said dummy was in reference to you calling ppl that, and that I found it odd Charles would allow you to do that. The whole point of this thread is the fact Charles allowed you to do that, yet censors others for far less...because he has the same political sensitivities as you do.

poochy Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 LOL With your posts? Yes, it's proper. You have a habbit of personal insults and inane comments. Yes and every social justice crusader here can call anyone a racist or bigot and get away completely scot free, or say, suggest that if someone was to draw distasteful cartoons of Jesus Texans would call out the KKK to have them dealt with, of course those sort of comments are made by the same sort of, and often the very same people. Insulting...yes, inane...yes, more inline with the owners/operators/moderators/facilitators bias? Obviously yes, not seeing that makes you equally biased. How about calling people idiots and then others respond in kind, those responses are immediately deleted, while the offending initial post, 3 posts up, is not, it's either bias or incompetence, pick one.

Big Guy Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 To drummindiver - If you feel that the conditions here are not fair then I suggest that you demand your money back and start your own site. It is not that technically difficult and all here who agree with you would switch over to your site. Try it. You may find the results enlightening.

Sorry, EDIT..you got away with calling everyone dummies who didn't agree with your slanted point of view. Not surprising on this site, given the slant. What moderator intervention would you recommend? and when? N.B.: Mod staff can not read every post as fast as they are posted. I took down 2 posts that were off-topic and distracting. I opened up them up again: drumm J.S.Omar You all can judge for yourselves. It seems to me that everybody got past the pettiness. The intervention was a success!!

Oh and lets see, while your at it, have a look at who likes to use the term loonies as well.Yes, you got away with it. Big deal. You used the word "dummies" in response to Rue who was the 1st to use it. Everybody continued the discussion without getting personal after that. There was no need to intervene and any intervention would have run the risk of political censorship. Therefore, I left it. Everybody else seemed to leave it too and move on. Anybody who truly had an interest in sharing ideas would move on.

Dummies?? It is not that big of a deal. Most other members ignored the pettiness and moved on. The discussion kept going without getting personal. There was no need to go back retroactively and intervene. Whatever bias may exist in moderation is most definitely NOT political. The bias is in favor of honest and polite discussion.
