~~~~~If I step on someone's toes who supports some certain politican just because he/she happens to belong to a certain political party, too darned bad. ~~~~~

And that is, of course, your privilege. BUT....that is NOT what I was addressing. YOU brought up the bannings of certain people....or the removal of certain threads. So I posted the OWNER'S words....so we would have a basis to facilitate YOUR understanding.

It has always been MY experience that that the person who rents the hall, books the band, sells the tickets, serves the punch........ALSO GETS TO DECIDE WHO HE WANTS TO LET INTO HIS DANCE.

And in case YOU haven't noticed....(which I find it hard to believe as it has almost consumed this forum).....this is Jim Robinson's dance. So if you don't like the decisions of management, I concur with Jim's advice: Change the channel.

I wish you well.

ALSO GETS TO DECIDE WHO HE WANTS TO LET INTO HIS DANCE.

This holds true rigth up to the point that this "he" starts asking for and receiving donations and THEN changes the course of action. Don't get me wrong, I greatly admire Jim Robinson for what he has accomplished with FR. He broke new ground on the Internet with his programming skills but, I miss the FR where we used to be able to discuss the REAL goings on of our government without most folks just blindly following the party line. A great many people who still post here are greatly saddened by the encroachments made on our liberties and our Constitution during the last few months that have NOTHING to do with any national security. If those in power were REALLY concerned with national security, our borders would now be CLOSED to those coming in illegally and we would NOT still be accepting folks coming here on 'student visas' from anywhere until we could get rid of the folks who are already here illegally and wish us harm. If I get banned here for stating such things, I guess I'll just have to live with it.
