Report Inappropriate Comments

Hillsgrove Hal,

I agree with you that a moderator would help but can hinder as well. I see it happen in the Facebook Group pages. Again, sometimes the things posted are simply subjective and your personal viewpoint has a way of getting in the way of having and unbiased opinion.

I choose to frequent the Beacon because I am actually interested in what goes on in the city. I learn something new from other commenters all the time. Many have been around a lot longer than I have been so it is good to put things into perspective. I think it is very easy to see past the bluster and see what is really going on. But I think that when it crosses the line into threats, it needs to be stopped immediately. I think name calling and inflammatory rhetoric automatically discredits the fact or theory you are trying to present.
