Thank you. I wondered what that 'flag' link was for.

I think it should be used to suppress spam and not for suppressing dissent, though.

Precisely. I see plenty of people in this thread who have a fixed opinion with very little to back it up.

And it is not those who say that there is a measurable (and measured!) difference in intelligence or violence between blacks and whites.

smtddr's post nearby is clearly in that category. The hirhome link is hilarious and would be wonderful as satire if it weren't for Poe's law.
