censorship

liberty 2007 · 2007-10-16 20:06:44

It would appear that censorship is alive and well and living on the boards. I understand that the management of the boards have that right, but if Kevin Myres is wondering why there is no debate, well what can we do?

I'd answer your post with a meaningful graphic reply, but cat pictures are just so out of place on After Hours...

Go set up your own website if you want complete freedom of speech. What can you do? You can easily set it up

I think maybe Kevin Myers was having a rant about censorship in general - those damn pinko Stalinists preventing decent conservatives like him from expressing their views!

I'm sick of all these morons invading our intraweb country and stealing our mhz. There I said it. In other news I'm so rich I just bought Justin Timberlake's house, drank his beer and shagged his bird... all this thanks to Viagra racialism.

That's just wrong. Because that's still calling them the wrong name.

Is not being able to say fnck restricting your ability to debate? You must be an incredibly boring debater then.

Is that your point here? Are you unable to argue something without vulgarity?

Yes, thats why we built a huge site dedicated to allowing everyone to broadcast their opinions..... because we love teh c3ns0rsh1p!!!

God, I've eaten salads smarter then your post.
