I assume you have confirmation from the mods that the cartoon was removed because it was offensive and not because of a copyright violation, yes? I saw it, thought it was pretty funny, not the least bit offensive (and I'm pretty easily offended) and was surprised that it had been removed until HS mentioned the copyright.
If your entire discussion about this has been on the forum and not in discussion with the mods then I suggest you hit the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of every page and ask them why it was removed. If you've already done that and you have confirmation that it was because of the content and not a copyright infringement then I agree with you too and wish you well.
Since I brought up the copyright issue I may as well post that it's in no way involved in Euroceltic's cartoon deletion: no external source may do more than unlink hotlinked pictures and texts by blanking them out in the post and posting some legalese along the lines of "Intellectual Property / Protected".
Besides - no external site can delete an A2K post, so it follows logically some moderator did it, and, since I posted my opinion of the one involved here on page 1 of this thread, I've nothing to add to it other than to say that, from all I've seen of Euroceltic, he might come back if the "moderators" apologized.
Link to post on page 1, so you don't have to hunt for it:
