Aussie what concept of freedom of speech dictates that websites cannot choose what to publish?

It sounds to my like you and cods are simply trying to hitch your whining about mistreatment on this website to the plight of the murdered cartoonists.

It might sound like that to you, but you don't get to put words in my mouth.

I agree, you can set the Rules about what can be said and posted here. Why can't you agree that amounts to a lack of freedom of speech here?

I can, of course, take you all the way down that primrose path if you like, but I know you'll bail out.

Because freedom of speech does not have a baby every time someone starts a new website Aussie. Posting here is not a right. It is not a freedom. It is a privilege that is granted to you on my whim.

"freedom of speech here" is just another pathetic attempt from you and cods to hitch your whiny victimhood bitching to the actual victims of Islamic terrorism.

Of course not. Freedom of Speech (a fanciful notion which simply does not exist) has nothing to do with the birth of babies, and that's gotta be a great thing freediver. No doubt about it.

And there you go again, desperately trying to put words into my mouth about Islam.

Sheeet, and it's taken how many pages for you to finally concede there is no such thing as Freedom of Speech! Great.

If that does not exist, then neither does your alleged appeasement to protect that which does not exist.

Nifty and sneaky edit there freediver. I guess you can do that.

I'm pretty good at understanding clear statements, but I find it impossible to comprehend you when, for example, somehow in a Thread about Freedom of Speech, I find myself having to understand voodoo about the birth of babies.

In any event, you have finally conceded the point cods and I have been at you about for how many pages?

Over to you on appeasement of those who attack that which you now admit does not exist, Big Boy.

And how?

Kindly explain your personal slur upon Freediver's integrity.....if you can.

Are you an expert on hypocrisy?

Then again maybe you're just content to cower on the sidelines & then whimper out your flaccid epithets
without providing any substance to your empty personal attack.

Or, are you just regurgitating someone else's words?

WetDreamerX attempts to conduct its pathetic, wimpy version of the Spanish inquisition.

Your hero (or alter ego) Freediver demands unconditional freedom of speech for the French cartoonists but provides limited and conditional freedom of speech on its forum based on it's "whim".

I believe Freediver's conditional freedom of speech is based less on whim than on Islamophobia, xenophobia and racism.
