This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by cyberswede (a host of the Welcome & Help forum).
In conjunction with the discussion on banning the NRA topics on DU, I have written something on the gungeon about the response to the Connecticut shooting -- clearly, gun related.
The host locked it, and I don't believe it should be locked. The NRA lobbied for changes in CT law, notably just before the mass shooting for guns to be allowed in schools, which was enacted.
I believe this is inappropriate censorship, but also an example of how there is bias and unfair censorship in the forum. I can find no PRO-NRA posts which have been locked.
It is in fact pretty hard to find any pro-gun posts which have received even handed criticism or locking.
