The title of the OP was.

Fort Worth officer jailed on murder charge after fatally shooting Atatiana Jefferson

I commented, “That Colin Kaepernick sure was an idiot!”

It was removed as ‘off topic’

First, it’s not off topic. It is EXACTLY  the topic

Second, since when does ‘off topic’ warrant deletion? If that was the case, most theist comments would have to be deleted since they rarely stick to the topic.

The mod. NavyVet, refused to even answer why he deleted it except to say off topic.

If you’re trying to build a channel, this isn’t the way to do it
