"There surely must be other sites on the Internet to discuss Freedom of Speech."

Indeed there are. Here is one, the 'Mountain Energy - No Bashing' thread;
207.183.153.73

The death threats made there against various critical posters are well documented on the 'Death Threat' thread;
207.183.153.73

Although, quite properly, the majority of discussion regarding those threats took place on the mtei thread where they originated.

The threat made by Roland Fleming of the TSE against the poster Porter Davis #reply-4693975 has a thread #Subject-21419 but again, and again quite properly, the majority of discussion regarding the threats has taken place on the thread from which they originated #Subject-11892

The threats made against the poster Janice Shell by the poster Ken M.;
207.183.153.73 (sorry, they've been wiped) were largely discussed right there on the edii thread #Subject-21917 where they were first posted.

So that seems to be the way it goes - you make a threat, and people talk about it.

Fascinating in its dynamics, this internet thing, eh wot?
