And Jeanette, I don't differentiate between a message board, and real life. No more than I would differentiate between what is done publically and privately. One's actions, regardless of the stage they are played out upon, are a testament to their character. Silencing discension, regardless of whether the subject matter is itself convoluted or crude, is still a form of censorship, in spirit if not in deed.
On a seperate note, how do you feel about hate literature? Should it be protected under the auspice of 'Free Speach' or limited as a purely instigational provision as covered in tyhe 'Fighting Words' clause?

Haven't you ever told someone to shut up when they were being obnoxious or rude? Furthermore I seem to recall you telling me I shouldn't be on the Philosophy board when I first joined the forums.
And yes, I do believe that hate literature should be protected.
