[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you going to censor me again Jeff?

You did not censor people who said horrible things here when Margaret Thatcher died. And only I chided those who seem to be attached to the disreputable among us (not my exact words but i said nothing foul of offensive). For at the end of the day Marion Barry was a public figure and and deserves public scrutiny. Yet during his life time to offer scrutiny was to risk being libeled a racist by many who post here. And now in death you won't even allow the discussion. I won't play the hagiography game but if you censor this its far worse than hagiography you are playing at. This is the Political Discussion Forum Jeff, please allow the discourse.

I just read the Margaret Thatcher thread.  I fail to see anything "horrible" in it.  http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/299723.page  This, despite the fact that she is a foreign political figure, not American much less DC's former mayor.

Maybe you could point out what you think is worthy of deletion for being "horrible".  I don't think you are showing much perspective here.[/quote]

That an entire thread is a debate about her politics and whether it was good or bad for the UK and the world. Plenty of negative comments about her. If Jeff is deleting anything negative about Barry in this, he's showing a double standard.[/quote]

So now we're down from "horrible" to discussing thatchers legacy. I think there are plenty of similar comments on this thread.

Stop looking for persecution. This forum is chock full of crazy posts of all political persuasions. And I'm sure you can say what you want without any problem. My guess is that if you had posted something remotely respectful you never would have been censored in the first place. [/quote]
