Still an empty profile though...

But not much better than:

Joe Tuman - https://plus.google.com/109949039322333887009

Libby Schaff - https://plus.google.com/110500927796450135344

Bryan Parker - https://plus.google.com/109333654487362962540

At least Parker has a couple of posts there.  Tuman has only 1 Youtube video..

If there are other candidates add them here and I'll share an Oakland Mayor 2014 circle..

I've been very impressed with the rapid progress of Sprint Reader I'm up to 650 wpm and can probably go faster with a little more practice.

Language auto-detection done!

Functionality coming soon and paves the way for more intelligent word hyphenation (by language pattern) and maybe, just maybe auto-translation!

Stay tuned.

Google+  has some common sense content rules in the User Content and Conduct Policy [1]  You'll notice there is no section on censorship based on viewpoint.

The issue described by Eric Raymond below is much more mundane.  It's actually a problem in the way Google+ previews web snippets.  

A couple of weeks ago we introduced the new Article embed type.  You'll notice these posts by their distinctive large-photos with a ragged-edge.  This new code caused the problem.

The markup on theblaze.com uses the http://schema.org/NewsArticle markup.  That, combined with some other factors causes the preview processing to fail.  This issue was reported to us on April 1st and a fix will be released to production early next week.

I opened an issue on our developer site to track this issue since it does affect a handful of other sites that use the NewsArticle markup.  Feel free to Star it to receive updates:

G+ may be engaging in non-viewpoint-neutral censorship of news  articles relating to firearms. 

This link:

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/04/04/gun-control-advocates-who-say-more-guns-equal-more-crime-...

results in post blocking when it's either pasted in the link box or pasted in text with the preview image not removed. Others have reported that all firearms-related articles from The Blaze, but not non-firearms-related articles, are blocked.

Something more specific than blocking of firearms-related images is going on, as the Geeks with Guns G+ community would have noticed that a lot sooner than now.

Google has some explaining to do.
