HCS current events is the place to go. few whack job libs over there that will defend all socialist gov intervention till they are blue in the face. fun to F with them.
btw I LOVE WALKER and all he stands for and wish he would have had a few more yrs in before this current run for the white house

My post gets removed and this gets to stay? WOW!

I understand you alone can't monitor all the posts, but that other thread was at least 2 pages long and went on for several days before it lost steam. I find it hard to believe that not one moderator saw any of that thread. There have been lots of other examples where they don't get pulled in the past year so I thought it was ok as long as it wasn't malicious. I guess zero tolerance is the only fair way. Pull them all!

I haven't posted a lot in the last month, but when I see stuff like this, it really annoys me to no end.

Of COURSE the Walker recall thread is left to go on, and on. Anything to do with recalling Walker is reported ad nauseum in the media and apparently this is no exception.
But of course when you try to state anything about the GREAT things, and I do mean GREAT, things Walker is doing, that gets censored immediately.
I am not surprised, but I vote with my wallet now. Walker will get all the spare cash I can justify to make sure he stays in office for his full term, and then some.
I applaud you for questioning what happened to your thread.

I personally think a good approach to sensitive topics would be to allow them and delete posts that are vulgar or offensive. I mean why follow the political correctness approach and stifle sensible communication. Is it really OFFENSIVE to say JESUS SAVES or WALKER ROCKS or is it received by the FEW as threatening. Does political correctness dictate to us what is offensive? I understand there needs to be limits and rules but to who's standard? Why cater to the few and stifle the majority? I always wondered how the wording "offensive" took hold.

JD's site here is truly remarkable at the level of civil communication that has taken place and I say thanks to JD personally. He has went above and beyond allowing the rules to be pushed. Lets not complain and speculate as to why this and that. If it's pulled it's pulled for a reason. Lets not punish the whole class for a spit wad on the wall. Just so happens it was Marks and I know Mark personally and he has a strong integrity and would make a wonderful Mod. Lets not pull them all or think about it like that. The mods have done a good job and it's a commitment to police the forum. The posts that bother me are the curse words. I'm not offended but it just reminds me of some of the raunchy sites that are out there and this is not one of them.

It's a conspiracy! :eek:

I love how the conservatives will accuse me of being a bleeding heart liberal and the liberals will accuse me of being a non caring, hard core conservative! Sorry to disappoint, but I am just a human that makes mistakes from time to time.

If this is really that big of a deal to you all... YOU SHOULD COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS!

Well, if anyone would like an email of what I had copied and pasted, just provide your email below and I will forward to you. I guess we will have to go "underground" to get the message out. If only we had a fair media in this country. We need more governors just like Walker.

Sent you a PM
 
All I said was that walker isn't even qualified to sub for me when I am sick, and that got removed??? Anyway, looking forward to my trip to twin lakes at the end of this week! See you all on the trails. :)

We need more moderators. Dave B. would do a great job. (he even wants to do it).

I have volunteered in the past and would be more than willing to help. I sit in front of 3 computers everyday. Wayne would be my 1st victim! JK

John, if you need help, let me know. Dave

The hardest part about moderating is staying neutral. You have to leave your personal beliefs at the door, I can state my opinion like everyone else, but you have to moderate based on the rules John has set up, plain and simple.

I made a stupid point when saying: but to who's standard?

Obviouly JD's standard is all that really matters, it's his site. I stand corrected by myself!

I know it doesn't matter, but I personally love this site and think that John is doing a fantastic job.
I'm involved and informed politically and could argue all day but I love this site for the other topics although I'll let my opinion be known if a political topic pops up but I don't blame him for pulling anything political, its in the rules and I know it.
I don't think John has been biased in any way, keep up the good work!
PS
If you had a political or hunting forum on here I would check them out a lot also, I always stop in on my breaks for something to do.
Think snow, my sled hasn't been out of the barn yet!
