To all of you who quoted the 1st amendment. read what I wrote above. I get it, private company doing what they want. I even said that above.

That said, there have been many cases of private companies doing things like this, from Twitter, Google, Patreon, Facebook, etc.......Patreon is esp pertinent.

The bottom-line is they can do what they want. If they are smart though, they will stop.....esp AS I SAID...for vendors they don't carry or support. As Patreon and other show, if they persist in being the thought police, people will go elsewhere, and that will hurt their business. My point was learn from others, have real people look at these things, and do not go down that path. There are times where it makes total sense, like talking up other vendors who compete with Pelican on products Pelican doers carry. Its not always what you do, it is how you are doing it. Pelican has always been a class act, esp by having these forums and cultivating such a great community and information that everyone provides.
