Community Standards Strike Again

It linked to "blue check" correspondent Paul Bedard's Washington Examiner report on a peer-reviewed study by John Lott published in the journal Public Choice

Incidentally, its link appears on a general Google search including on Google Cache, but is suppressed in a "News" search, with an article attacking Lott's work appearing at the top of the page by two "researchers" of undisclosed political affinity that my money says will turn out to be sympathetic to Democrats. 

My suspicion is an algorithm went searching to erase it from existence. If this is all it takes to get booted from a personal opinion and commentary blog, everything I post here is subject to being undone and Blogger is no longer a viable platform to publish on. Either that or some troll saboteur complained, and the same applies. Until I see if I can get this reversed, I'm going to need to limit activity here to promoting my articles as I search for a reliable repository for my work.

Remember when Facebook booted a post for wishing everyone a contemplative Bill of Rights Day?

UPDATE:

Fox News

Democratic Rep. Ami Bera of California says he was attacked by a rogue fox outside the US Capitol. [More]

Maybe if he wasn't an anti-gun fanatic he could have done something about that.

The thought strikes: That fox ended up being a bigger danger to a member of Congress than every one of the Jan. 6 "insurrectionists."

Then again, so did this Democrat.
