Thoughts about freedom, our forum . . .

. . . and the manner in which we conduct ourselves here.
Yesterday I posted about my father's colleague, Angelo Chatas. The villagers of Ste Marie du Mont were so grateful for his heroics during D-Day that they named a street after him.

It's difficult to make out, but the rectangular white sign above the posted 30 kph speed limit reads 'Allee Angelo Chatas'.
Angelo risked his life so that others, as well as future generations, could live freely. The benefits we derive from living in a free country are many, with freedom of speech being foremost.
There are those who ask why we - the moderators of Watchprosite - are deleting or editing threads and posts in support of Ukraine. The answer is simple: our forum exists for a single purpose, to share the passion all members of the community have for wristwatches and other enjoyable aspects of life.
There are other venues to express our feelings regarding calamities currently in the news. Our sole purpose is to allow people around the world express their interest in and appreciation for wristwatches.
Please, let's keep it that way.
