Maybe I'm doing it wrong?

If they like to control your music and ability to add memory card, text censorship is not that far fetched. 

 

 

One word: Android

My iPhone test was sending from an AT&T iPhone to another AT&T iPhone (and Obama remained).

 

Maybe it's the carrier?

It's a bug, not censorship... Been around for months

Thats just what THEY want you to think.

And this way i ALWAYS buy the extra thick tin foil and not the thin stuff..............HA now who's laughing!

You could just start calling him Voldemort.

What bug could possibly have done this? I mean really?

Who sounds like the loon now? All he said was that it happens, and he doesn't know why, but it is weird. No claims of anything like what you are saying. And he is right. I did it too my text too. It is weird. I don't know why it happened. This is both true, provable, and no conspiracy. In fact, the only 'conspiracy' I see is you claiming that it is one. Ironic?

Incorrect.

 

Shawn titled the thread "Crazy Censorship" alluding to the fact that it was purposeful and done by an entity looking to change or delete people's speech.

 

If he said "hey, this is weird", "check this out" or "You cant text the word 'Obama'", different story altogether, but that wouldn't have been enough drama.

 

ETA: I just tried it and it "Obama" was not deleted.

Didn't do it on Jon's but did it on mine

lol, Patrick how you get it to say F#$# in the corner ?

I just "googled" it and it seems to be a glitch with iPhone 5 running 6.1.3 in iMessage. One article says it also deletes the word "surprise" but I didn't try it.

Jail broken phone lol you can do alot of useless crap

You mean like he did?

 

 

 

 

I don't know why but try it

 

I don't know. Thought its weird. I had someone tell me today. I tried it. I then tried on my wife's phone. Same thing.

 

Apple says its a glitch

 

 

You mean like he did?

Excuse me, I used the word "said" referring to Shawn's choice of "The Sky Is Falling" type language that he used for the title of his Chicken Little post.

 

If he did not think it was censorship, why did he title his post the way he did? He knew it was a glitch before he posted it - The only way to get it to work is to put a space after Obama, if he got it to work, he was aware of the glitch, and entered the space.

 

So, why allude that is censorship when he knows it is not in the first place? It doesn't make sense.

 

Allow me to re-phrase my post for you:

Like it or not, the title of the post - in this case "Crazy Censorship" - is not isolated from the content of the post. Even the forum admin/moderators agree:

 

http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/52215-thread-titles-important/?hl=titles

 

Regardless of what else he wrote, he called this glitch - which has been widely known since late April 2013 - "Censorship", in typical Shawn - over the top/end of the world/they are coming for us - fashion.

There is nothing end of the world about it. It's just another reason for a few people on here to cry and wine. Don't like my posts? Ignore em. It's that easy

Nothing was wrong with your post.  I agree that its kind of weird, actually.  There was just no need to insinuate that there was some entity repressing or, in your own words, censoring the public's ability to text a sentence with the word "Obama".  You may not have even know about the "glitch", much like I've never heard of it.  

 

Don't come on here and make an inference like that and not expect to be called on it. 

I literally heard about it today.

So did I. And within 5 seconds and 1 Google search I found out:

There are many articles about it

That it has been known about since 4/13

How to make it happen

What other phrases it works with

And that Apple reports it is a glitch

 

No Conspiracy, no censorship, no big brother, and the sky is not falling.

When did I say the sky was falling. I said it was weird. And you know what? It is weird
