Thank you my friend Col Joseph Lenertz for posting the 'news' that the benighted folks in charge of Twitter banned Irish comedian Graham Linehan after he made a common sense observation “men aren’t women tho,”
I have never participated in twitter and rarely use Facebook except for birthday greetings. George Orwell [Animal Farm and 1984], Jonathan Swift, Thomas Payne, Will Rogers, would no doubt weigh in on this if they were alive.
"Graham Linehan, the Irish comedy writer, creator of Father Ted, The IT crowd, and other popular shows, has been “permanently suspended” (newspeak for being unceremoniously exiled) from Twitter for sharing a simple statement of fact: “men aren’t women tho,” which he wrote in response to a post by the Women’s Institute wishing a happy Pride month to its transgender followers."
Thank you my friend PO3 (Join to see) for mentioning me.

Well LTC Stephen F. I knew we were missing some great perception and knew you would be able to deliver such squarely.

Nothing like the good old 1st amendment in action. Honest criticism banned.
