    There are several reasons Qs are removed.

    1. It is a violation of the rules - you will get an e-mail when that happens. If you want to know the reason for the violation, post "Why was this question (answer) a violation?" and add the original e-mail you got so the users can see the exact context. The experienced users here will explain it to you. There is no statute of limitations on breaking the YA rules.

    2. There were zero answers when the time expired - no e-mail sent.

    3. The BA was reported as a violation - no e-mail sent.

    4. During voting, "No Best Answer" was chosen as the best answer - no e-mail sent.

    Look in your e-mail, including the spam folder, for a violation e-mail. If not there, check your activity tab in your profile. If nothing about a violation there, then the Q was removed for one of the other reasons.

    Because it was reported by 1 or more reliable users. The rule you broke was rant and not seeking knowledge. It is your opinion that Obama and the Democrats always was gun control and you were looking for others to jump on your rant bandwagon...you weren't seeking knowledge..just agreement and dem bashing. Always is the word that got you...

    Unless you launched into your opinions on the subject, seems innocuous possibly worth an appeal.

    Edit. You actually did make a statement which gave your opinion, possibly reported as a violation question and answer format.
