Censorship stinks. Provided members post within the rules then they should be free to express themselves.

Forum Moderation requires a degree of censorship. The forum exists for people interested in politics to get information and have discussions. This is a website, not a democracy.
If a poster is continually not contributing to the discussion, clearly not interested in politics, and is only promoting their own unrelated agenda, I believe the admins and mods should have full discretion to wipe out stupid threads or issue bans. Referees, judges, and forum moderators use the rules as a baseline, but will always need to make judgement calls when necessary.
The amount of trash, spam, and other types of unrelated material can detract from the quality of this site if it accumulates.
I applaud the admins and mods any time they "take out the garbage".
