He can speak his mind, and most of my changes wound up being for legibility.
Therre was nothing that Bush posted that I found personally overly derogatory, and I believe any intelligent reader can deal with it.

I did the same thing when SCSA posted some stuff about Harald that was  extremely derogatory.  He said I was  protecting Harald and restricting his right of free speech, and chose to remove  himself from the forum. 
I wasn't protecting Harald and I'm not protecting Epic -- but I'm exercising my own standards of what is respectful communication.

As I said, I posted my comment about my intent to edit Bushwacka's post after a quick read.  When I went back to do it, I found that most of my changes were to make it easier to read; I may have deleted one sentence. I don't believe that he would feel that I materially changed the content of his message.
