KEEP - Such charmingly Stalinist reasoning from those advocating purging PW from a public record: "It is yesterday's news"; "PW consists of very few people whatsoever... only one or two people per counterprotest"; "appears to be a group that has come and gone and nothing it did is worthy of more than a footnote in an encyclopedia"; et omnia generis alia...

"Yesterday's news"?
Were that the criterion by which entries in *reputable* public records were judged, the Encyclopedia Brittanica would be a single slender volume.
The purpose of any encyclopedia is to RECORD FACTS. Failing that, an encyclopedia would have no reason to exist at all.
One might as well advocate purging ALL of Wiki.
"Yesterday's news"... What a transparently idiotic brain-addled notion to put forth as "reason" in this debate.

Now, the following may be phrased in a tongue-in-cheek manner, but I am deadly serious.
Purging the politically inconvenient and annoying from the public record is a tried-and-true method of socialist propaganda.
The motto of those who seek to act in this manner is "he who controls the record of the past controls the future" - think about it, and consider the drive to delete PW from WIKI in that light.
An election cycle is just warming up, and it seems likely that it shall become quite heated.
Prior elections have demonstrated that Protest Warrior is an effective poke in the eye to the mass of folks parroting the usual global socialist talking points.
Seldom have "so few people whatsoever" so effectively rained on the kollectiv parades of so many Useful Idiots.
That they have ever been relevant earns them a permanent place in the record.
That they are likely to be so again merely reinforces their worth, and sheds cold light on the motives of some who would purge them from history.

Sadly, you're beginning to see a LOT of these "Political Deletions" coming from leftist-controlled orgs, like GOOGLE, and the victims are Conservative sites...............

So much for that Democratic Principle of "Free" speech, eh??

NOBODY hates the ideas of free speech and the free exchange of ideas more than a leftist, ESPECIALLY ben burch.......
