[Seattle-editorial] proposal to hide

The problem with it is ,"[I] am calling for the
immediate arrest or execution of tommy franks, bush
and rumsfeld, to face public trial for 9/11"

By adding the one word 'execution' Mr. Wizard has
threatened the president. If the Secret Service and
FBI are willing to try and shut down the IMC for
somebody posting the President's itinerary (last year)
then we should take this flippant threat very
seriously.

I say hide it on grounds that this may jeopardize our
maintaining the space as a community resource. Of
course we should make that clear in a comment on the
hidden article. Troy or others respond?
