Reply #148: How many times...

[Hell Hath No Fury]

over the years have we had certain folks beg us to "think about how it looks" when something provocative is posted?

How many times over the years have we had certain folks attempt to shut down discussions deemed too hot -- and been successful too many time?

Over the years here too much that was deemed "conspiracy talk" has later turned out to be 100% true.

PNAC was once called "conspiracy talk" here -- now it is standard thought.

In the lead-up to the Iraqi invasion there were the Bush "evidence" investigators here who called "bullshit" while others here said "nonsense", you're talking crazy talk. We all know how that ended.

Terror alerts used as a political weapon against the American people? Nah, you're making w-a-y too much of that. Oops, now that Ridge has all but admitted it, maybe you were right.


I am 100% for free and open discussion on all topics, regardless of where the discussion leads or how it "makes us look".

If we don't ask the questions -- even the most out-there, tinfoil hat variety -- can we ever find our way to the truth?

There are many CT threads here that I have looked at and later dismissed -- but I want to see them and want the chance to evaluate them myself, not have that opportunity subverted by someone's need to feel more comfortable about DU.

If I wanted to be made more comfortable and have my information edited for me I'd fucking watch CNN!.
