Although some Forum members may find his comment in poor taste, do you really think that he should be banned because he voiced a differing/and apparently unpopular view point.

Foul language, (swearing) seems like it would more meet the criteria for suspension or removal from the forum.

Removing someone from the Forum for simply expressing themselves in a manner that doesn't involve foul language seems like something more found in a socialist regime and is unAmerican. Sometimes it is unfortunate that we have free speech, but I'm still glad we do. Please don't make me side with the ACLU again. We can all enjoy our right to free speech and just choose to ignore comments like this, as I do often when reading this Forum. Does the Forum have guidelines against bad language, racism, etc? Those lines for truly unacceptable behavior are really easy to draw, wihout getting into a situation where Forum members are complaining about whatever personal pet peeve they have. But if we are, I've got a long list started with suggestions...
