Fantastic initiative by Google. Anna Peirano details: "Google is launching a new campaign called 'Legalize Love' with the intention of inspiring countries to legalize marriage for lesbian, gay, and bisexual people around the world. The 'Legalize Love' campaign officially launches in Poland and Singapore on Saturday, July 7th. Google intends to eventually expand the initiative to every country where the company has an office, and will focus on places with homophobic cultures, where anti-gay laws exist." As proud as I am of living in the first country to legalise same-sex marriage, it's easy to forget we only did so in 2000. Also, it's about time the large technology companies of the world started using their power, reach, and money to do good. Hopefully, this initiative will transcend company boundaries, uniting them behind a common, noble goal.

But why is it only affecting this one, highly controversial story? I hate to rush to judgement but of all the stories posted in the past few years, this has to be the most controversial by far.
And, it's not the first time this has happened. I don't remember the topic but there was a story with an entire thread deleted by Thom a while back; he came in and explained why he deleted it. I hope that if that is what is going on here, he will own up to it.

It could be a bug. It says there are X comments, but if you count them it's far less.
