I'm sure CE had a good reason.

That kind of subject needs to be taken to PM's. If you have a problem with the way the staff handles situations this is not the place to voice them.

I sent you a PM.

The thread was closed because there was no way to verify the source. We have had problems in the past with people just copying and pasting just to try to up their post count. It has nothing to do with any one persons view.

EkyLb, Midee has already addressed your question for me. Threads with broken sources or threads that contain copywritten material with no additional opinion or discussion by the original poster will be closed. This is due to spamming and copyright issues that we have had to address before. As DW has pointed out, he felt the same way a while back....if you haven't noticed by now, DW and myself agree and quite a bit of things, so this should be proof enough that I am not simply closing things on a whim because I disagree with them.
Also, as Midee has already said, your question should not have been addressed in the public forums. Rule #6 states:
6.Please be respectful of the site and the staff of the site. If you have a complaint about the way the site is being ran, then please contact an Administrator and inform them of the problem, and it will be discussed among the staff. We here at Bluegrassrivals work very hard to make this site enjoyable for all, and we will not tolerate the site being downgraded in a non constructive manner in any way. Breaking of this rule would include: calling the board names such as lame, stupid, bad, etc., telling moderators/administrators that they aren’t doing their jobs right or questioning their status as a staff member and include any general bashing of the way the site is being ran.
With that said, we would ask that in the future, please send any grievances or questions such as this via PM. I do not create threads and call you out by name, so I would appreciate the same respect.
Beetle01, you claim you don't know why you were suspended. Let me clear some things up. You did, or should have, received an infraction notice explaining your violation of Rule #5: Inappropriate Material. The fact is, you made a racist statement that claimed Mexicans and blacks are the main reason to blame for the credit situation that we are in. That was an insensitive and unfair comment to make. You also were only suspended from posting for 24 hours. Again, your explanation WAS given in the infraction that you should have received via PM.
Now, since this entire thread is in violation of rule #6, it is being closed. I feel the issues at hand have been addressed and there is nothing more to say that cannot be said in a Private Message. If any of you would like further discussion or questions, feel free to PM me.
