I posted a silly little comment on another thread last night and it was removed. I can't believe anyone could be offended, let alone indulged in their hysterical offense:

BREAKING: SW Airlines Flight 1966 from Chicago to Seattle "diverted" to South Dakota

Why on earth were these inoffensive, light-hearted comments removed from the thread?

I sure hope your mom isn't the troublemaker.

I sure hope your mom isn't the troublemaker.
You said what I was thinking... LOL

It is absurd that anything so harmless could be censored at Free Republic.

I feel certain the Moderator was prompted to pull the post by the article's freaked out poster. Talk about over reacting ! Good grief. I don't know who was worse him or all the idjits who are still asking today, hours after the fact, if his mother is alright. Lord, give me patience. Like they wouldn't have heard from Mr Hysteria if she were not fine ! Do those people rely on FR threads alone for their news ? Did he have a computer at the airport ? or in this critical national emedrgency was he able to pull it together long enough to go home and prepare that thtead ? If you were that over wrought would you even think about posting a thread until you had "Mom" back safe and sound ?

It looks as if a couple of other post were pulled also and that FReepers at #'s 13, 22, 24 & 29 saw the harmless humor in your post. Number 22 had an excellant bit of advise for franic son. LOL. I loved #30's hilarious sacrasm. FOFL. It could be said for so many pointless responses. Hehehe. I expect I'll use it sometime real soon.
