    Well said my friend.
    This new censorship is indeed a very foreboding signal to those that truly love freedom and this our nation.
    As it meets with cheers from the party that received so great a benefit from it- the corrupt dem party and all of their ilk.
    Think it will be firmly cemented in the next 4 years and thus not ever be stopped.
    And that is very likely to be the tragedy and the death of freedom in the future, imho.-Tyr
