I can see your point of protecting sensible people from having to argue their positions.

I would like to get your opinion on the parent to which my comment was made. I find the assertion that police kills blacks in a disproportionate manner to be also and even more inflammatory and provocative. I was commenting to the aspect of an unnecessary political comment with an inflammatory slant.

Proof is also the fact that the flagging mechanism was used as a censoring method. My post simply stated that he needs more proof for statements made.

I am very disappointed on the way this flagging process is used to silence valid and well argued counter points. It is not an intellectual discourse but just a points-based battle.
