Don't you mean that 'you' need protection from people who have different opinions and ways of expression than you do?
Grow up son. I know that the world currently treats everyone like they are three years old but I'm not convinced that this a good thing, not by any means. The HC mods are doing a great job holding the balance between outright dangerous abusiveness and allowing everyone to have their say. I've modded a website before and trust me, there is a LOT of stuff going on behind the scenes that you'd have no idea about. So be grateful for the HC mods and for HC in general which is more than a mere stock forum.
So thumbs up to the mods, keep doing what you're doing.
