Well, I had a couple of answers pulled and I guess one of them was a bit too radical but the other one wasn't. Then the jerk that I had answered sent me two scorching e-mails, I wish they'd have read them, so I quit having contact with people on this site to keep him away from me. I think you should be able to ask and answer questions as long as no profanity is involved or threats such as I received or just out right hate answers are involved. Immigration is one thing, and illegal aliens are another. I'm totally against illegal aliens and I don't care where they are from, but it's the hispanics that are marching in the streets and asking for all forms, etc. to be in spanish and so they are the ones that have been targeted the most, justifiably. Don't quit asking, you know there are a lot of us waiting to hear from you.

I don't think it is if you can remain civil and respectful towards others and their opinion. When you start getting defensive rather just answering a question, or when you start insulting other members, or dropping the f-bomb --- that is where your problem lies.. Then again, I seem to do those things and still I'll have my answer or question removed because some poor individual couldn't accept the fact that people's views differ from one another. These people are a 24/7 reporting crew that will send a complaint because they've got nothing better to do than hate.. I recently asked "Would you be willing to vote English as the 'official' primary language of the USA?" and that was deleted. For what, I'm not sure.

I think so but don't give up. I've accepted the fact that there are those who are passionate about it (I am but I'm for closed borders and no amnesty). I haven't had any questions been pulled but it just sucks. I think some people have a problem with this label: "if you're for open borders, you're left-wing and if you're for closed borders, you're right wing". That's just bs. Have you heard about the Bracero program and the "Operation W**b***" program? (google it) I personally think we should bring them back (maybe not the original idea but making it fair). Anyways, just try to be "mainstream". Thanks!

You are being fined?
Who is fining you? I didn't know Yahoo issued fines. I thought this was a free service.
Man, I must owe them a LOT of money!

“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American ... There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag ... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language ... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
-— Theodore Roosevelt 1907

I am very opposed to censorship so I understand where you are coming from. I strongly disagree with depriving others their freedom of speech. Keep on posting your questions and answers. Your opinion does matter! :)

How much was the fine? Did you have to go to court? I wouldn't say dangerous but there is always a chance of a violation whether it is fair or not. Yamsters can't read, that's the problem.

I haven't seen this problem yet. Maybe clean your opinions up a little. You know, say the same thing but in a nicer way.

Keep on trying. But remember to be mainstream.
