Sorry, Blair, but it doesn't work that way in the real world. Them that
has the gold makes the rules. There is no more freedom of speech on any
site than those who own the system allow. If you think that there should
be freedom of speech on my site, send me $5000, and I'll sell you the
computer; otherwise, stop trying to tell me how to run it.
