No, not really. No one is required to be there, attendance is not mandatory. If you feel you're not being allowed to speak your mind just go somewhere else. It's the same principle that protects religious groups.

I also manage forums for IB, they have their bases covered.

One of my many bans was this, of course in PRC Section:

Someone started a thread of how tough the economy was for low-wage earners and those on a fixed income.

A socialist replied that we have enjoyed a too high standard of living for many years, and now we MUST be more like europe.

I jumped in and replied that this will never be acceptable in The USA, and advised the poster not to lower our standards to accomodate his party's failures.

I was given 3 days for being hostile, there was no additional explanation given.

90+% of my warnings and time off have come from the same mod,,,

I do not agree with your views, well most of them, but 100% support you in stating such and presenting facts.

The problem on the inferior forum is a gross bias by mods that lean left, they allow those on their side to post many assumptions, to ignore facts and ban those who passionately challenge them.

Unfortunately there appears to be a few users here obsessed with being banned from there and just can’t let it go.

Thanks but keep in mind that my bans (which there have been many) have all come when I oppose the view of the members on the right. Jim once told me that if I was going to post against the right leaning members and mods I should expect the kind of responses I get.

Yes, and we are not in a recession, the economy is strong, and the sky is green.

Just for grins, what he told me. For context I was complaining about JC banning me for hijacking.................. my own thread.


Jon, as we've discussed before, a significant percentage of the community members who post in P&R are conservatives. So, anything of a liberal slant that is posted is not going to be well-received. While you view the comments of jcharity and grumpy as critical of your thread, our rules don't restrict them from posting their opinions so long as those opinions are not in conflict with site rules.

I should just not post anything contrary to conservativism, got it. Please know I've been warned for being "inflammatory" and "making inflammatory comments" for less. I've been warned over and over and even banned for thread hijacking as well, My thread should also be given the same courtesy of protection well. Also, jcharirty's comment about no trolling saying I know it's hard to do is not sharing an opinion. I think it's a travesty that all the non-right wingers have been chased off
.

Jon, you missed the point. It's up to you what and when you post. You should not be surprised when you don't find general support for your political position. Jim

Boy, you DID totally miss the point. As with every other liberal I know, you are apparently so biased that you cannot see actual facts. Today our liberal governor stated that proposition 47 did not increase crime here in CA. And Biden said he had done more good and had more qualifications than ANY previous president. WTF is WRONG with you guys?? Wake UP.

Just to be clear, not a lib. Just a never Trump Republican. Get Donnie out of the picture and we agree on almost everything.

Also, you kind of miss the point. I only posted that as many here are complaining that CF is a left leaning forum, even they know that is not the case.

I voted for both mccain and romney, did not like either that much, too much in the middle; neither was my choice from the primary pool.

So you should consider voting for whomever the candidate is, as it helps our party, not voting is a vote for the other side.

I understand principles and personal constitutions, but in end your party replacing the current socialist aholes matters most.

You can still blast TRUMP after, no one will know you voted for him.

The members are right leaning. The mods are now controlled by a racist cabal of black supremacist Marxists. I don't know what happened, but it did happen. Another institution infiltrated and destroyed by Marxist sympathizers.

Which do you see as better for America:

- Eight years of Trump or eight years of Hillary?

- Eight years of Trump or four years of Trump followed by four years of Biden?

- Eight years of Trump or eight years of *anyone* on the Dem side?

And say *why*.
