Feeling angry is not inappropriate, and I did not say that. What I said was that acting out on it is. Posts are frequently misunderstood on SI- and you have misunderstood mine. SI is sort of a food court - and if I do not like the food at Buffet O'Poop- I go to the poop free food kiosk. That is what these threads are- little stands, with different things to sell. You want to force people to offer pooop at every stand. Since SI is a business, free speech does not apply, but the owners have given everyone the right to start their own food stand. None of us can eject someone from the court (to use your analogy)- only the SI security team can do that- but we can make them leave are particular kiosk. That is as it should be, imo- balancing freedom of association (a much overlooked freedom) with freedom of expression.
