Spenco, we encourage you to try to translate it yourself first. - martha-sd, Feb 17, 2012
I have my own translation and wanted to compare, Also, in considering the insistance on using correct grammar I do not think it is appropriate for you as a singular person to refer to yourself as "we". - Spenco, Feb 17, 2012

the meaning would be that silence does not imply agreement and that the power to silence other people will not make them change their minds - Spenco, Feb 17, 2012
also, silence disagreement does not make it go away - Spenco, Feb 17, 2012

Hello Spenco, using the 'Past Indefinite' I would say "No ha covertido a un hombre, sólo porque se le ha silenciado". All the best...Jool.
