First off, censorship is only done by government. By definition. This is Rich's living room, and it's up to him as to what's acceptable behavior and speech. No different from you in your living room.
Some threads lend themselves to an attitude of "Kill'em all and let God sort'em out." In this particular thread, for a civilian engaged in self defense to use suppressive fire? That can all to easily get into a spray and pray use of one's weapon, endangering non-combatants. To do so is not just stupid, it's illegal. A moderator has to judge by the tone of the writing, which may not necessarily reflect what the writer actually means. We actually have people write stuff like, "Well, I'm gonna do whatever I have to, to survive!" Uh, does that include "suppressing" your neighbor?
Obviously, I'm second-guessing Erick.
It's the Internet. No facial expressions, no body language. Many posters don't really think out, plan out, their thesis. it's easy to misunderstand.
