Moderator's Note: Shutting Down ALL threads on the Trump shooting

[Travis Miller]

Hey guys, I know i normally let this place kind of police itself like the wild west, but a signficant event like this needs some moderation. No matter what side you are on, yesterday was horrific. It was an escalation of a political process that was already out of control. We have so little information, and the situation is basically radioactive and can devolve into any number of personal attacks.

Therefore, I am shutting down ALL posts discussing it. They will be deleted, and I will keep an out out for any new ones.

My own personal views are not a secret. Both major candidates have flaws and are terrible choices. This is not the place to promote or condone violence, however.

Both sucked, and I'll happily shut down January 6 too (since I wasn't in charge then).

What purpose could there be to block people's right to talk about this incident? I disagree with this move whole heartedly.

Private business gets to decide who gets to publish content on their medium?

That’s completely good.

The prupose is that this is an absolute dictatorship, I alone am in charge, and I don't want to deal with a ton of reports and moderating arguments that get out of hand.
