Do you believe in freedom of speech? Comment welcome

Someone who does not apparently complained about The Iconoclast and it is not available today.
That was the first thing I was told this morning. I would have known about it by now anyway, because I always click on Jonah's blog before I even check my email in the morning.
I hope the Google censors find Jonah innocent of whatever allegation was made against him and restore the site soon because there will be a lot of people grumpy on the streets of Northwest Arkansas today if they can't read The Iconoclast first thing!

There was a story on CNN this morning about facebook banning photos off mothers breastfeeding their babies.
The neocons aren't whipped yet.

Are you sure this is complaint-based?

The email address "jonah.tebbetts@gmail.com" has also been deleted. Why would the gmail inbox be gone unless the blog is gone?

They elected their man and hoskins
answered the development issues. There is now no longer a reason to blog.

Is Jonah out there? Can you explain?

I would have thought you'd have said au revoir ... given us time to brace for withdrawals if this was of Jonah's doing.

What was the last thing Jonah posted yesterday?
Who did he critiicize?
That is probably who contacted google and complained of something that appeared to violate the google terms of service..

Let's ask Sen. Bill Pritchard.

Would he even understand if he tried to read the iconoclast?

Yeah, don't be accusing the handicapped of doing something they can't do.

I will miss the site as well. Only started watching it a few months ago, but I am hooked.

Hmmm- wonderments abound. Has anyone discovered anything?

I have been hoping for a comment form Jonah or for The Iconoclast to reappear or for the person or people who run that site to email me about the situation.
Maybe I'll start a new Jonah thread tomorrow on this site to try to attract comment from someone who may know the facts.
I enjoy doing my blogs, but I don't have the ability to get to the heart of things the way Jonah does. Every day I still click on The Iconoclast link first thing before even my email in the hope of seeing Jonah's site arise from the gloom.
Please keep offering ideas about the problem and feel free to bring up "off-topic" ideas under my existing threads or email ideas that you want to invite others to discuss. So much cyber space to fill!

It sounds pretty petty, but maybe some punk hacked in and crashed The Iconoclast.
