But for as many people that do the same number of people will find it funny or not give it a second thought. That's the beauty of diversity. It's also the foundation of democracy. You cannot expect people to accept you and/or your community if you yourself are unaccepting. It's not selective. When you censor people because you either don't like or understand what they said, on some level you lose your credibility to expect unconditional acceptance outside of your comfort zone. My .02.

CockyDude -

It's not acceptable to use public threads to play out your dissatisfaction over a moderation, even if thinly-veiled. You've been told to move on twice.

You are now on a 2-week time-out. You are not to access this site, our Facebook page, or any of our resources while on a time-out, nor are you to create additional screen names in order to circumvent the system.

Thanks for your cooperation,
Admin
