Grant62, I had a few words the other day about certain posts having no place on HC (I don't normally get myself involved but it was out of control) and of course, having complained, was accused of trying to stop 'free speech'....it had nothing to do with free speech and everything to do with posts that are rascist, abusive, and in many cases full of profanities which have no place here and only show the immaturity/intellect of the people involved.
We have a great variety of people here...some with a great deal of knowledge and some who are learning...but we also have some here who would rather destroy a good site and really show no respect for anyone. It is because of these individuals that we need some moderation here.
