Oddly enough, I in no way promoted violence against, threatened, or harassed Chelsea Handler. I was replying to an article posted by BreitbartNews about Chelsea Handler alleging that Justice Clarence Thomas is still as much a sexual predator today as much as he was in 1991. The funny thing was, the suspension notice I got didn’t take more than about 15 seconds after I posted my response. Obviously, Handler has someone monitoring her account 24/7 and complaining in real time. What a wuss.

I contacted twitter support to protest the decision, and got a message saying that it would take at least 24-48 hours for them to respond. So there’s no effective appeal for my 12 hour timeout.

This is what social media has come to......and so far, my experience had been that Twitter was much less restrictive than Facebook. I guess not.

I’ll wear it as a badge of honor, and put a big red X next to my handle.
Apparently speaking the truth is all that is required these days to get banned on social media.

I recently ate a permanent ban on another forum having never violated any of their rules but for making one of their favorites look like a fool by posting actual numbers relative to DGU's, gun ownership, and the likelihood of being the victim of a violent crime absent involvement with drugs and gangs vs what he was peddling as fact.

Wear it with pride.
