Fellow citizens turning in fellow citizens to the secret Yahoo police. Assumed guilty- all it took was for an enemy to drop of dime before you were tried, convicted and sentenced without a trial. Freedom of speech not recognized.
My latest crime: I criticized Bill Clinton for allowing 25 Kids being burnt alive at Waco. I guess that kind of talk is wrong- and we need to destroy all copies of those newspaper archives.

not often. First, the Soviet Union become in a severe decline way until eventually now their conflict in Afghanistan. The Soviet's static and communist financial device, corrupt totalitarian government, and later on weakening state. further approximately it is death. mutually as america is a democratic u . s . a . with a thriving capitalistic financial device. do no longer difficulty, the U.S. could be right here for sometime. And the U.S. isn't disintegrating as you study and see some extra of the information, no longer in easy terms mainstream and not bias and warp-innovations websites. And the "Muslims power" has in basic terms approximately no longer something to do with what you stated. nonetheless the Soviet conflict in Afghanistan become no longer an instantaneous and actually link to the Soviet Union's death, the Soviet conflict in Afghanistan become parallel by using fact the U.S.'s Vietnam conflict, which i did no longer see the U.S. "crumble" at that element. by using toughness and adaptability of the U.S.'s open and capitalist financial device and as a democratic u . s . a ., allowed the U.S. to undergo the Vietnam quagmire and etc. if that's what you wanted to parallel and pay attention. additionally, the Iraq conflict become a failure of imposing even classic counter-insurgency physique of strategies, loss of positioned up-conflict arrangements and plans, and absence of attention of community ideology, custom, and thoughts. Soviet's ignored the element of mountains of their conflict in Afghanistan and how the terrain become suited for guerrilla kind approaches. P.S. There weren't "hundreds of thousands" of lives lost, the count kind of Soviet losses counted to fourteen,453 squaddies.

It is unfortunate that dialog here has become so adversarial that deletions are common. Anything needs to be fair game for discussion, anything. And we need to allow each other the opportunity to express any opinion, for without that freedom, all is lost. I don't like the feature of deletions as they almost always come from another participant who dislikes your opinion. Some people do go over the line talking about lining up libs or conservs against the wall and killing them, and that kind of speech is like crying fire in a theatre. But anything else should be allowed and not be up to the whim of an angry blogger to remove. That feature reminds me too much of darker times in world history..

Sonny, you're the one who was wrong. Clinton never "allowed" kids to be burnt at Waco. That was a choice that the parents and their "prophet" made. They had all kinds of opportunities to get out. They chose to remain in the buildings and die.
What do you suppose Clinton could have done ? Those people were deifying the law by refusing to honor the search warrant like any other citizen must do.
I don't like Clinton, but this is one for Clinton, zero for you.

Once again i will try to explain the obvious. There are a lot of petty people on yahoo answers from both sides of the isle who whine and complain excessively. If you think all of the violations are coming from the left, then you are sadly mistaken and very wrong.

Ya might want to run through Yahoo guidelines again. And, while free speech is guaranteed by the laws of the United States, on Yahoo you must follow their rules.

the fact that you are still here to write about it shows that yahoo answers is eons aways from the former soviet union or Saddam's Iraq. You, your family, or both would have been gone by now.
Funny how most remember Janet Reno as the blame for that. She protected her boss well didn't she? One hell of a man she was.

I agree with you. People should not be reporting people just because they do not like their stance or opinion.
I have a feeling Janet Reno made her own decisions and basically did as she pleased.

One thing I have learned over and over...It is ok to criticize when it agrees with the mainstream media. Unfortunately I don't agree with idiots most of the time.

And they say education is important. I had one of my answers removed because I "offended" someone. I couldn't understand their question, supposedly in english, and only told them to go to grammar school. I wasn't rude or used foul language. Go figure.
