Censorship! 911!
There are some hypocrites who have had a post removed that showed legitimate video evidence something was not right with a collapsing building at the Twin Towers incident 10 years ago!
The fact that the post has been removed indicate to me that "freedom" is negotiable by people like Garinda! Who think they stand up for freedom they do not!
I am offended that my post has been removed which asked bonafida questions!
Call this a Free forum?
I would like to know who was offended if they actually had anything to do with this event 10 years ago! I would say NONE!

Before you get your conspiracy theory knickers in a twist, I asked a question about deleted threads/posts because I was interested why what you referred to was removed.
You can calm your paranoia, assured that I certainly didn't report it, or demand it was removed.
Not a great fan of unnecessary censorship myself.
I think it's much healthier the public can laugh at the deluded thoughts of others.
Virtual care in the community.
We've got a responsibilty to help them.
By at least pretending what they say is taken seriously.

Re: Censorship! 911!

I did not follow why you made a reference to Phil McHugh.

Wrong.
I was, as I said in the thread.
I thought it insensitive to start a conspiracy thread about 9/11 on the tenth anniversary of the atrocity.
You had a right to post it. I had the right to say why I thought you'd chosen the wrong day to do it.
I did think it odd it was in the music section though.
Odd, but then again, not a reporting to the moderators matter.

I was seeking to exhibit the same sense of insensitivity, that I think the thread showed to the victims of terrorism families, some of whom live locally, and seeing as the person you referred to is the brother of the thread starter, as he's mentioned previously on the forum.
Clearer for you?
Though I'm not overly concerned if you still 'don't follow', seeing it was an illustration meant for the person who'd started the insensitive thread

I did not realise that he was the brother of the thread starter. I went to Accrington Grammar School with Phil and worked with him for a year until punk rock came along and he left to become Phil Serious. Do you now follow why I asked?

Re: Censorship! 911!
I'm gobsmacked and amazed that the only reference to the tragedy ten years ago seems to have ended up as an arguement. Whatever happened lives were lost needlessly.
Show some damn respect R.I.P. to all the innocent victims and may their families find peacexxx
P.S. If you have a theory about it please post it on any other day than this

Re: Censorship! 911!
It was not reported, I removed it as I thought it was insensitive and in bad taste. You know why I removed it becaused I pm'd you when I did and said post it in a few weeks if you like.
That should have been the end of it and you should not have started this thread about it as stated in the rules
