Got a 30 day ban from my local subreddit for saying the new bike lane plan was bad

I mean, last Tuesday I posted that the city's plan to remove parking for bike lanes on Main Street would hurt small shops. I gave numbers from a study I read, showing 40% of customers drive in from outside the downtown area. The mods called it 'misinformation' and banned me for a month. It's not like I was being rude, I just disagreed with the popular push for it. Now I just talk about it on my own blog and a different forum. Has anyone else been banned for bringing up data that goes against a popular local project?

Bringing up data" got me banned too. I just post it on my own blog now.

Yeah, the blog move is smart... makes me wonder if they ban data because it works too well.
