There is fascinating censorship of civil ideas on this board.

Twice now - twice - I have had my commentary deleted on this board.

The part of my post that apparently gets (wrongly) interpreted as uncivil is, I guess...

... the part where I point out that if a Syrian in Toronto had apologized in a column on behalf of all Muslims for an attack by Islamists on Christians in Syria...

.... the elites would bristle and be outraged, exclaiming that a Muslim in Toronto has no right to speak for the world's Muslims, nor the right to invoke some kind of group guilt by apologizing on their behalf for an attack by some Islamists in another country.

And yet today's column is comparably afflicted: A born-and-raised American in Toronto is apologizing on behalf of white people of the world for the acts of some US white people.

Why does my post keep getting deleted? It says NOTHING uncivil.

Well, enjoy it till it gets deleted again, I suppose...
