Can anyone explain [View all]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by cyberswede (a host of the DU Community Help forum).

How a post about 9-11 on the General Discussion board can be flagged as "off topic" on 9-11?

The post was about odd I find it that considering how pretty much people of all political stripes all agree that our government is capable of all kinds of atocities in the name of power and treasure, so many roll their eyes and call people "nuts" if they question the events of 9-11.

The post didnt offer an opinion on the validity of said conspiracies, just how strange I find in light of what I said above, not to mention documented cases like Operation Northwoods which clearly shows our highest military leaders are more then willing to commit acts if terror on Americans to "motivate" them into war.

My guess us the administrator is one if those very people who roll their eyes at conspiracy "nuts" and so he flagged the post. I can't think of any other reason, it wasn't "off topic", contained no profanity, etc.

Is this normal here?
