Mr. Hsiung,
You wrote,[...I did a quick search..] and found that the Jewish Defense League uses the motto, "never again".
There could IMHO be a subset of readers that could think that you could be wanting to mean that the slogan, "never again" is exclusively adopted by the JDL or even coined by them by your citation to Wikipedia. And those readers could think a lot more from what you wrote here, including IMHO what could put me in a false light and decrease the respect, regard and confidence in which I am held and induce hostile, disagreeable and disparaging feeling and opinions against me and that I could be associated with the JDL. This is compounded by your prohibitions posted to me that prevent me from fully answering you in the manner that I need to from a Jewish perspective as revealed to me,in order to stop you and you deputies of record and anyone else you get to be in concert with you to post messages that could arouse anti-Semitic feelings, from allowing anti-Semitic messages to be seen here as supportive and will be good for this community as a whole
The expression, "never again" was not formulated by the JDL. The JDL uses the phrase like a great number of other Jews and others, including the President of the United States. It is not exclusive to the JDL and I am not a member of that group nor do I support violence to repudiate hatred toward the Jews, even in internet content providers that allow anti-Semitism to be considered to be conducive to the civic harmony and welfare of the community, and supportive, and will be good for a community as a whole.
Please note my objection for you to post what could have the potential IMHO to arouse ill-will toward Jews in that your citation of the JDL could IMHO falsely associate Jews with the JDL in its use of the phrase "never again".
The phrase, "never again" has an origin. Here it is:
http://www.scholastic.com/teachers/article/x201cnever-againx201d
And here it is used by the President of the United States:
