In the now-locked 2A Poll thread, cory was one of those calling for moderators of the Grendel Forum to censor the dissenting opinions of a member.

That is patently false as you and Gene both missed a critical point in what I said in that conversation. I did not suggest that we censor you. So let's start over...
We here are a group of like minded people working towards common goals, protection of the 2nd Amendment. In order to reach said goals we must engage in conversation. However, simple conversation is not enough. It must be polite conversation. Conversation with some level of rules and lines in which we mutually agree to not cross.
And If rules are necessary, it is necessary that they are enforced. Unfortunately that may mean removing someone from the conversation that refuses to operate within the established rules.
This is what I was suggesting in that conversation.
Furthermore there is a vast difference in a small group of people censoring someone from their conversation versus groups with extraordinary power coming together to silence a dissenting opinion.
On an additional note as I saw it, while calling it as I saw it as true as possible I was defending you in the post on which you reference. At least that's how I saw it, I'm disappointed others didn't see it the same.
