You wrote,[...readers could,(think that by me sanctioning the vulgar word and saying that then the anti-Semitic statement is also sanctioned, is a pretext to allow anti-Semitism to be fostered here), but I think that they're unlikely to...].
I do not know how you determine what other people could think. In a subset of readers that look at what could be your intent here by you and your deputies of record then being unwilling to post a repudiation to the anti-Semitic statement in question, {...No non-Christian can enter heaven...}, they could speculate that your rationale for allowing the statement to stand is a pretext in order for anti-Semitism to be fostered here by you and your deputies of record then. These subset of readers could make that conclusion by the fact that your saying that you sanctioned a word that the poster posted later that was vulgar, that by you doing so means that the statement in question is also sanctioned could not be accepted by those subset of readers as the statement that could lead Jews and Islamic people and the others depicted in the statement to feel put down. There could be a subset of readers that could see differently from what your rationale for allowing the anti-Semitic statement to stand here. Let us look at this example:
Let us suppose there was a break-in to a house and the robber was confronted by the resident and the robber shot and killed the home owner. The police were on their way as an alarm was tripped and apprehended the robber on the grounds.
Then at trial, the robber was given a warning concerning that he parked his get-away car in front of a fire hydrant. The wife of the murdered man asked why the man that murdered her husband was not prosecuted for murder in commission of a robbery. The prosecutor then told the wife of the murdered man;
"We gave him a warning ticked for that he parked his car in front of a fire hydrant in front of your house, so that means that murdering your husband is also a crime, but by us giving him the warning ticket for the parking violation, we do not necessarily have to arrest him for murdering your husband."
I ask you:
A. Would you be willing to delete the thread and then repost it if an impartial mediator agrees with you that you could leave the anti-Semitic statement to stand?
