A more inoffensive article one could not wish to read. It it not marxist, racist, fascist, imperialist, radical or even particularly implausible. Had an article been posted which advocated the mass slaughter of Christians or the extension of slavery to anyone who hasn't got a knighthood, then they would have cause to complain, but as it is I think that free speech applies. Deleting it would be as absurd as insisting that the Labour Party entry is unacceptably offensive to members of the Conservative Party.

And, now that I come to think of it, there is probably a page on the German Nazi party and one on Zanu PF... so even if they do associate the FCS with everything that is most despicable in humankind, they seem to be following a policy of providing disinterested information and as such there is no cause for deletion.

I think that these deletion suggestions emanate from nutters even more isolated than we are...
