If you dare ask a question with back-bone, Yahoo calls it a violation, and deletes your question.

Why must Americans who are passionate about their politics be censored by Yahoo in this manner?

If Yahoo Q & A seeks just answers and questions from non-passionate people why do they even have a "Politics" section?

LOL!! I get at least 3 violations daily for the horrific TOS violation of "chatting" or "not a question or answer."

Yahoo has the right to run this site any way it chooses. If they want a clean, family site, that is their right.

On the other hand, if you are simply expressing contrary views, you may have picked up a troll or two, like me. Just respond to each violation notice. Sometimes you'll get your points back.

Welcome to the world of political correctness - it is a by product of people demanding to be heard and choosing what they are to be called and denying the truth of their origins as well as exaggerating and jading history to fit their claims. We must all now be on our very best worded behavior or suffer their wrath - they have lawyers and they are not afraid to use them. Free thinking people with strong opinions are the new minority and PC is the way to be. Smile and pretend it's all OK - just pretend "Anthony" is in charge and hope he'll wish you to the cornfield out of his line of perception.

I personally don't mind answering a political question but I gotta tell ya. When I click on a question and find that it comes with a five paragraph rant, I just skip it.

Because of the Politically Correct crowd who might be
'offended' and the last question is correct, might as well not have a "Politics" section!!

The problem is that your questions are based on emotion. When that happens people are either going to love or hate you question, instead of answering it. So instead of feeling for you next question, make your questions about thought

If your question is nothing more then fiery rhetoric intended to inflame others, it should be censored. Especially if it's based on untruths.
