Hi Net,
"There are certain sites that people are not supposed to post from. Could add sierratimes to the list?"
If you are asking if you should avoid posting on Sierratimes, then I would ask, "Why not?"
Reasoned correspondence to ST could only help others who read and post there. Indeed, it might even improve their philosophy and, once again, direct them towards constitutional issues, instead of paltry political bandwagoneering -- like trying internet warfare as this issue indicates. For that matter, it might show them that the principle of free speech is important to them after all, and that they only damage themselves by *banning* dissent for mere personal convenience.
Loyalty is a very fine virtue but it shouldn't be elevated above constitutional principles they are supposedly created (the website) to teach and reinforce with their effort to inform.
However, from my personal experience, I don't think they are true conservatives and that they allow some sort of 'tribalism' rule their emotions, and which emotions overrule their judgements. If you read the links provided in another post, above, you will see the group chauvanism attacking out of spite and resentment -- not any effort to address the reality of the situation.
The same with the idiot spammers, here. They aren't conservatives -- they're gang members and can only 'think' as a mob. . .
