Locking a topic (perfectly summed up and explained by Mr. Nightingale), which condemns a bunch of retarded kids and idiots (as well as their liberal supporters), who destroy historical monuments - is ridiculous!
Why haven't we had this problem for 150 years before??
Why don't those guys go and take down statues of Columbus and rename the city now??
And, why don't you guys go and chase down everyone who has (or collects) Confederate coins and notes?
Dear Xavier, please, let people express their opinion.
Gordon Gekko: Now you're not naive enough to think we're living in a democracy, are you buddy? It's the free market.
Free just means you can chat about things other than coins. But there have always been forum guidelines regarding no pornographic, political, religious, etc discussions as Xavier linked to in that locked thread. When signing up to this site one of the prerequisites was agreeing to abide by the rules of the site so we have all agreed to this.
ignoring the ones on politeness and correct english, the rules relating to banned threads are

Asked for locking. You just called normal people retarded and idiots. Without calling the names of those defending these statues, just for the sake of idiots and retarded people, who are actually ill or born that way and which you insulted.
You blind? Don't see that in the US the same methods of demarcation are used, which were used in all the recent color revolutions in Egypt, Syria or Ukraine. They are primarily attacked by historical memory. Information about the past, about the roots. We have about Stalin's times or about the era of Ivan the Terrible, in Europe - about those who freed them from fascism, in Ukraine - about their Russianness. Textbooks are being rewritten, books from libraries are being seized, tailors from the media are changing people's brains.
History is altered when they want to redraw the boundaries. Historical memory is cement for border pillars. Someone just wants to knead the flour for a new one. In addition, the people without memory are weak.

Oh my God! Dear Jarek, how come every one became so sensitive all of a sudden? I have never meant people "who are actually ill or born that way". Hmmmm... But actually I'm not sure. My buddy lives with a cute girlfriend and sleeps with their ugly neighbor at the same time. I told him he is ether retarded or an idiot. Don't you think he is? Or do you think he is "actually ill or born that way"?

7doktor, is this tripe all you only post about on Numista? Grow up.

Normal people??? Read carefully.
I said "a bunch of retarded kids and idiots who destroy historical monuments"!
ISIS's destroyed historical monuments as well.... Have you ever heard of Palmira?
Are you actually calling ISIS "normal people"?????

Quote: "Donkey"Dear Neal, which one applies to this particular topic? Besides the word "liberal".
It's Neil, and I wasn't talking about this thread, you asked why the other one was banned...and I'm guessing it was the "Messages aiming at stating political or religious views or controversial historic interpretations are not authorized." one.
A heavy boy with the flag of the Confederation stands motionless in front of the monument to General Lee. He salutes his stone commander. And before him - a crowd of supporters of peace, love, tolerance and diversity. And they, adherents of love, literally crouched from hatred. They, admirers of tolerance, yell and scream, and jump in front of the dead boy, draw their fuk's to him, and try to offend him in some way.
But nothing comes out.
The boy stands so calmly, as if there is no monkey garbage in front of him, as if he were alone in the square.
He and his general.
To whom does he look like? And he looks like a black girl who also passed without a fuss over the raging racist crowd when she first went to school in the fifties.
But now another century, and very different people are trying to trample everyone who does not go with them in step. "Peace and Love," once a symbol of freedom, became the rhetoric of humiliation, domination and censorship, and whenever a hypocritical man quotes Nelson Mandela or Martin Luther King, a street herd demolishes monuments, scribbles and scans its cheap curse.
The herd is panting with rage.
And the boy is standing.
