To whom it may concern:
I do not expect you to post this but I do expect to be taken off the monitores and review because there is not just cause to do so. I have not made any threats or used profane language to anyone.
The sheer principal that I would be placed on a censorship and review because my choice of language was humorous at worse, and INTERPRETED derrogary by those whop may hav disagreed with my choice of harmless words, is unconstitutional. A violation of my civil rights.
I would like to remind the owner of this domain that it is .org, and further it ties directly in a numner of different "counts" to an adminitration that is employed by a government agency, the government agebct itself.
I herewith request be taken off review, or that the administration exhibit just cause as to why I was placed on review.
Please be advised that this communication is aimed at the preservation and enforcement of my civil rights and the actions of the moderator or administrator may be subject to action to [reserve those rights.

As I've said before, do not confuse your right to speak with the right to be heard. No one has denied your right to speak. However, you do not have the right to hijack this
private website for your own personal soapbox. I created this site, long before my employ with the city, to provide a convenient place for city dialogue. Good luck trying to get
your posts in
any newspaper.
You will be permitted to use this site so long as you do not abuse it. You were placed on moderated posting (where I read your post before it goes live) because I considered your prior post "hateful"- a violation of the agreement. I call them as I see them. If you don't like the format, you can post someplace else. In your post, you labeled homeless people as "undesirable". You also compared them to "pigeons" and stated they were "encroaching" your neighborhood. If you deny this, I will remove your ability to edit posts. I see now that you choose to remove the hateful portions of your post.
I will consider your request to turn off your post moderation. Understand: continued abuse may result in permanent removal of posting
privileges.
