My post was not meant to be critical of you or the board.

We can abhor and call out censorship when it happens. And we can abhor and call out cyber-bullying when it happens.

I, too, have tried to set a good example. I have offered posts on a variety of subjects in an attempt to foster civil political discussion. Many have been critical of Trump including his Big Beautiful Bill, tariffs, and his flippant attitude towards due process. I am a ‘live and let live’ libertarian with a deep respect for the Constitution. I despise lawfare and waste, fraud, and abuse in government.

I am a guest here and respect your rules. If people like Gustavo (and all of his sock puppets), Just the Facts, Lucky, and even Mondo chose to ignore your rules, that is up to them. But I will not tolerate cyber bullies and other insecure posters who choose to call me and other ladies here “ass holes”, “pieces of shit”, and “bitches”. Misogyny has no place in civilized discussion. Cyber bullying will be called out and bullies will be exposed whenever they choose to be verbally abusive.

I do not want to control other people. They can choose to express themselves however they want. But I prefer and will continue to look for forums that embrace civil discourse and can except opposing views without tolerating the abusive behavior of insecure bullies.
