What are you talking about!?!  No one, myself included, suggested anything 
even remotely close to what you just inferred.

Why can't people understand this very simple concept:  The discussion we've 
been having about 'censorship' has had VERY LITTLE to do with the nazi flag. 
  Rather, the dicussion has been about POLICY, and child pornography, like 
the nazi flag, is an issue that the policy needs to address.

FYI: I was NOT trying to justify the censorship of the nazi flag.  If you 
reread my posts, I have yet to make a comment on whether it should be 
censored or not.  And I still have not given my opinion on that topic.  Why? 
  Because I don't think it is extremely relevant to this discussion.  It is 
an EXAMPLE!  We are dealing with policy, with theory.

This is insane.  Either people cannot read these posts, or sadly, they are 
not reading them close enough.
