According to their software, I’m guilty of “continued biased voting.” In other words I was not voting down comments “the right way.” What a bunch of nonsense. What some people might view as offensive was OK to me because there were no threats or personal insults. I’m a reasonable and rational 56-year-old man, but I won’t let an a computer censor me.

The Denver Post has saddled you with subjective punishment. Are you OK with that? I’m not. I’m going to “deposit” this twice a day to rub their noses in it, and I encourage you, the reader, into doing the same. Don’t let them force you into being a spineless clone.

Speak up.
