Anonymous coward indeed. What's in it for you? Why on earth would you want to peddle this crap?

What's wrong with sharing both sides point of view? Even if one side is pure evil, should we not at least give it an opportunity to defend it self?

Would your reasoning also apply to a racist tag performed on your door? Should it stay up to give them a platform for their point of view?

This platform is, and should be, moderated; I am not sure how this is controversial when /pol/ exists, and yet even that is (lightly) moderated.

In a real democracy it is common to let both sides speak, even in newspapers.

If someone shares one sides point of view in a forum I think many, including me, wants to know how the other sides look at it and let me make up my own conclusion. In this case I do not agree with the police side and I get frustrated and angry when I read it, but still I want to understand the complete picture. I think censoring speak because you do not agree is a very bad path, I stand by Voltaire.

I fail to understand what propaganda on ones door has to do with a discussion about a specific event at a news forum?

I did give that opportunity.
