If you wish to take things personally, gunsmokeTPF, that's your prerogative. However, you are putting words in the mouths of others. Please show me where Patriot86 or I told you that you (or any other TFL member - you were only singled out in your own mind) that you could not voice an opinion.
We obviously disagree with your (and some others') position. That is hardly the same as imposing a gag order.
If you have been admonished by the moderators for wording things in an intemperate manner, welcome to the club. I don't know what you wrote, that drew their negative attention. I know that the times I've received PMs from staff, I really couldn't take offense - some of my remarks had been provocative.
I still think that denigrating OC ultimately only helps to subvert a right. Do some engage in OC in a way that smacks of bravado or immaturity? Yes. Do some people speak in unwise or immature ways? Also, yes - and yet one does not see 1st Amendment supporters saying fools should not talk.
(Again, not a personal attack, just a general statement.)
