I couldn't disagree with your more. The author was using interesting rhetoric and you misquoted him in an attempt to censor him. You are asking people to silently and politely discuss issues that very serious and very problematic. Honestly, seeing the moderator of HN say this, has made me question if HN is worth participating in anymore. To me this is the turning point where 'dang' demands civility in uncivil situations and mutes and waters down the discussion. I very dissapointed in you.

You're blowing things way out of proportion. I also disagree with dang's assessment of the situation but I can also understand being bothered by the quoted statement. I'm bothered with it because I strongly disagree with it - I think the US should be ashamed of its police forces but certainly do not "silently celebrate" when they are killed.
