A note to our long time regular commenters:

I have no idea why comments under the post “The fundamental right of the accused to remain silent under threat by a police union” have been turned off. It never has been and never will be policy at CR to put up opinions in the form of a post and then disallow comments under that post. If the setting isn’t changed I will remove the post.

Can it be part of not allowing comments to be sent by email?

No, Katie. That’s a separate function.

I know a blog where you have cross-post privileges.

Thank you, Pascal.

I’m sure it’s just an administrative oversight by the author, KG.

Comments were on when it first went up,maybe somebody tripped over the cord on the way out?

I have no idea why the comments have been switched off? I have checked the screen and found the comments section as ticked?

  How?

    Rather than just trying to edit the main article, Nemesis, go to “All Posts”, do a “quick edit” on the post concerned, and tick comments on there.
    
    I’ve been mucking around with my own blog and finding out all sorts of WordPress idiosyncracies.

      I will remember that. I have been having some funny episodes when typing up posts with wordpress myself. Thanks for fixing what should have been a non-issue.

Comments being closed under a post is very far from being a
“non-issue” to me.
Thanks for fixing it Kris. Comments are enabled by default, so they should never have been off.
