gotta pay the mortgage ...I understand
 
Admins killed my post. I was doing a PSA about a real life tragedy asking the board to help by doing the only thing possible with is to write your congressman/senators and ask them to fix it.

I even mentioned what may become necessary regarding my 1967 C10, which is board relevant, and still the post gets taken down.

This is a community of American folk who may be interested to learn about the issues a fellow C10 enthusiast is facing in America.

Apparently the admins think otherwise. Censorship much?

This is a Chevy truck forum for everyone who wants to can discuss their own truck ,ask questions ,find information and buy and sell parts . Any time you ask others to "write your congressman or senator" your talking politics and the old rule in a bar was never talk politics/religion or nationalities because not everyone agrees . So I'll have to agree with the mods on this one without even knowing what your post was about .


Let's just keep it all about our old trucks and everybody stays happy . :chevy:

This is a community of truck enthusiasts from all over the world, not just America. It is also a privately owned website and as such there are rules when you are in someone else’s house. If you were in my house breaking my rules you’d be “censored” real quick :lol: There are PLENTY of platforms on the internet to discuss politics, religion, etc. Thankfully this place is not one of them :metal:

The post was political, even if unintended by you. It was removed as per the rules. There are plenty of outlets to promote voting on bills etc. This happens to not be one of them.
We would love to have an area for folks to discuss legislature etc. Been there, done that, does not work.
