To: Vigilant1, Jim Robinson
We here at FR know different, I would like to challenge anyone to try and post a discenting view point on DU and see how long it is before your account is wiped out. What bothers these groups who claim censorship, is the fact that JimRob has the most popular conservative website in the entire world and they can't deal with the facts. Jim and the Moderators do a great job dealing with the disruptors.
The other fact about this accusation is: If Jim Robinson wants to censor every single opinion posted on this website, he has the absolute right to do so. Jim is the owner and if you find that your opinion is not welcome here......TOUGH SH*T, go find some other website to post your opinion on.

I was going to stay out of this fray, but, as long as views agreeing with yours are posted, then OK, otherwise hit the road. Real conservative of you. Since JR is the owner of the site, it's true he "can" control content, does that mean he "should".? When a Moderator deletes a post or someones response, where does that spark debate? Frankly, alot of stuff I read here should be pulled but isn't. I think what folks get concerned over is more a lack of consistency than anything else. When a post is deleted out of hand, how can you or anyone other than the deleter know of the content, and whether or not it deserved to be pulled? I would think it better to leave the post and let grownups decide for themselves, or did I miss something in relating conservatism with personal responsibility. There is no lack of pinning someones butt to the wall here at FR, let the post stand or fall on it's own merits. Blackbird.

Why did Jim Robinson start this form?
According to Jim's own words, he was on Prodigy and he would get censored all the time.
I don't understand why he would want to censor his own site so heavily.
