If your intent is to have your objection to a post recorded for all time (or as long as Babble is around), then yes, your voice will be stilled in that intent.
But in many ways on Babble our voices are stilled. We are not allowed total freedom of speech.
Dr. Bob needs to weigh the desires of some posters to have their complaints visible for eternity against the desires of other posters, which they have expressed better than I could.
As far as people believing something is ok in the time between a post is made and Dr. Bob comes to the board, if many posts which do not meet board civility guidelines are made, the situation could be seen as escalating, and you could contact the deputies about an escalating situation.
