#1 Here is an answer to your question. "Why should this site have more hypersensitive standards than a retail store?" Because this site is not owned by walmart. It doesn't have the kind of money that walmart has. And the product that is being sold is quite different. Not to mention that the customer base is totally different. There is no walmart stores in every part of the world. There is not even a walmart in every part of the United States. Prove to me that walmart would sale all of their products world wide without exception. You can't because they don't and wouldn't.

It is particularly ridiculous to do so when it is only to the benefit of a few hypersensitive individuals targeting a particular set of other users.

And yet we have remembrance days every year, where all these memories must come flooding back to you.
What next, do we stop remembrance days, war films etc, etc or is it only on certain forms of media you wish this stopped?
This link is to a film with graphic depictions of Nazi atrocities. Is it "anti-Semitic"? Should this post with this link be modded?

I think that film is essential viewing even for 13-17 year olds (who aren't supposed to be on this site in the first place according to the TOS).
Originally posted by cashthetrashYou've yet to come up with a single reason why your hypersensitive nature (probably fake but even if real) should trump the purpose of these forums. Are you denying that the purpose of a forum is exchange of ideas and expression?
