“Well, it just goes to show you that one shouldn’t use Facebook as an outlet to express one’s political thoughts.”

IMHO.......THE absolute wrong response..in fact, it just is a primo demonstration that we have effectively been transformed into a police state....with no accountability. Trying to admit otherwise is avoiding the responsibility each owes to freedom.

I can understand your position. However, there is such a thing as choosing the 'battlefield' for the war of ideas.

It makes no sense to me to fight this battle on Facebook where the larger population occupying said battlefield are idiots who couldn't be convinced away from their ideology anyway.

It is just asking the government to pick up the insurgent stragglers on the ideological battlefield where there are plenty of Vichy collaborators.

As you indicate, we have been transformed into a [virtual] police state. Why walk around with a "disappear me" sign on Facebook?
