I'll explain this once- and no more.

Curtailing one's OWN expressions, and keeping control over one's OWN writings has always been acceptable to me. I am for freedom of speech but not anarchy- there is a difference.

If you had merely paraphrased what I said I would not have had the post removed. BUT you chose to put my whole post here. I see that as analogous to copyright infringement. To be sure this IS a limitation on free speech- but so is libelous speech and slanderous speech, as well as speech advocating direct harm. And I explicitly asked that nothing be done to you- I merely wanted my exact words to stay where I had put them.

I support those very few limitations on speech because I find them reasonable. Perhaps you do not find that position reasonable- but that is of no consequence to me. It is enough for me that I find my system reasonable and rational.

My position on the freedom of these threads is unambiguous and should stand for itself, but for the repeated insinuations coming from you and your little buds. For example- you KNOW I had nothing to do with your suspension but YOU are too much of a chickenshit to say anything. I find that repugnant. You prefer to let the insinuation of buddy Bill lie. But I find much you do repugnant, so this is really no surprise. No honor, no ethics, you are the consummate lawyer.
