I want MY thread reopened

I started a thread about the possibility that these "mail bombs" were a false flag operation and our PC moderator has closed it. It is my thread and I should have been asked or notified before hand. The investigation is not over (it's barely begun) so there is still a lot to talk about. If individuals have been insulting then I suggest the moderator do his or her job and deal with the individual and not censor us all in the Soviet manner.

#openthethread

Start another one.

I think I just did but don't tell PC moderator.

I think it was not personally directed at you or the OP.

Threads get closed all the time here. Mostly because they've gone off track, and after multiple warnings refused to get back on track. In that case, we close it, issue the points necessary, and move on. Your opinion has been noted. Case closed.

P.S.-For future reference, they're never YOUR threads...as soon as you hit the submit button, this board can do with them as it wishes, and as such, you have no say in what happens to them anymore.

Also, you're lucky it was closed imho. This being a 'false flag' is about as true as Stormy Daniels being an Oscar nominated actress!

Back on topic.

The sound of the oppressor. Once you pay your taxes it is no longer your money and you no say so how it is used.

Save for a few loons writing for some of the whacked-out conspiracy mongering websites, no one was suggesting, even in the early stages, that this crime was likely to be a "false flag" operation. Given that set of circumstances, what's left to discuss?


As for your insinuation that your free speech rights are being trampled in "Soviet style," you are quite free to host a website and say just about whatever you wish, and to delete threads started by others for any reason, or for no reason at all. Just as the owners' representatives are free to do on this site.

I am constantly amused when folks here think their rights (none actually) are trodden on by the "oppressor".
This is a privately owned board, somewhat a dictatorship.
Play nice and it's a benevolent dictatorship.

What I find amusing is that folks can not seem to adapt to a few simple rule changes in this forum.

JD will find that if he keeps talking shit about Moderators, that there is a rule aganist that too!

And with Facebook catching it's first lawsuit even with fosta/sesta not even active yet, there's way more to come on that whole issue.
