Yet another example of the American police state. Also look at the story the mods decided to bury, man has 20,000 seized from him in yet another civil forfeiture case.<p>mods ban IPs for those who speak out against the government. Don&#x27;t bother trying to have a real discussion on HN. The mods fully support government control. Look at how they handled the snowden discussion, they &quot;penalize&quot; articles which are critical of the government. Mods also routinely protect government suppoerts, shills, and allow sock puppet accounts to control karma.<p>My account will again be removed. Remember HN is not a place to truly discuss the american police state.
