So you flushed an entire, long, interesting, multi-participant discussion of authentic Native American (you know, the guys who made the artifacts) history because you (or somebody) found "politics in it.

Well, you can probably find "politics" in nearly anything if you're determined enough to. The problem is that you're declaring a lot of reality off limits when you do that.

I don't knock myself out to present the knowledge and information I've accumulated over a literal lifetime of studying artifacts because somebody wants everything canceled that he doesn"t personally like because it disturbs his belief that the official version is true, complete, and mandatory. (News flash: it's got holes in it big enough to drive a semi through without scraping the sides).

You impoverished the knowledge base here by doing that, seeing to it that nobody coming here to learn ever encounters anything that leads him, to start asking relevant questions and thinking independently.

What you call moderation, in this case, I call vandalism.

Uniface you brought the politics into the artifact forum which violates our rules and YOU know it.

If you didn't want the thread deleted you should have left the politics out of your thread and replies. If you want politics in an artifact forum start your own forum and stop violating our rules.

Here is couple more rules you need to please remember.

You may not.... Insult moderators, or denigrate the duties they perform.

"Users may disagree with the decisions or actions of the moderators and/or administrators, however, disagreements, criticism and the like are not to be aired within the forums. Please feel free to PM the person directly rather than air your dirty laundry in public."

politics here in the people's republic of new mexico keep he from arrowhead hunting/metal detecting/hunting/fishing/gun shows so it is relevant ???????
Yes, it's relevant but not allowed-simple as that.
If it is to be debated it has to be in the Charter Members section.

Some refuse to pony up the $$$ to do so, yet they have a need to discuss the topic.
When the yellow flags are dropped-it's for a reason-yet some still keep the petal to the metal.

Bleaching an entire thread, has in fact soured lots of great knowledge.
Folks just go off, and play in another sandbox.

Members can discuss laws as it relates to our hobby, what they can not do is bring politics into the forums. You can discuss the laws, but you can not bring politics into the conversations, threads, and posts by referring to specific political parties.

Per laws in New Mexico, you can't hunt or keep artifacts found on any county, city, state, or federal lands, same as in Florida, but you can hunt and even dig on private land in New Mexico same as in Florida.

Metal detecting is legal in New Mexico, what you can't do is dig on public lands. You can metal detect and remove surface finds, and you could also use a pinpointer, probe, and screwdriver to remove what you found from under the ground as long as you do not dig. I have used this process many times, first locating the target with a metal detector, then isolating the target with a pinpointer, using a probe to get the exact depth and location, then using a long screwdriver to retrieve the target through a sliced cut in the ground.

You can hunt and fish by law in New Mexico just like the rest of us, you just have to follow the laws just like the rest of us and you also have concealed carry law in New Mexico. The State of New Mexico no longer allows gun shows at state-run facilities, but gun shows on private property and non-state ran facilities are allowed.
