Free speech is a protection against the government. It does not apply to me and you- and require us to listen to people we don't want to. If I don't like what someone does I turn then off- as I have every right to do. This is not a public street, this is a thread I created in a private business- it is analogous to a rented hall in a hotel. If I don't invite you to my daughter's wedding reception you do not have a "right" to be there- even if you want to exercise your freedom of speech. Further, if you act badly (and that's badly imo) I can throw you out. You might want to familiarize yourself more intimately with the right to freedom of speech- and while you're at it, check out the right to freedom of association- it's also a doozy.

You are free to disagree here, but if you call names, or bring in extraneous conflicts, don't expect to be able to post here.
