You live in fear. The threat of internet “threats” and “profanity” is overblown BY FAR. The execution of that policy is used to enforce leftist orthodoxy and little else. One only needs to see the venom and profanity spewed out against Chick Fil A, Phil Robertson, Sarah Palin, etc etc to know that the policy is a political tool used to benefit one side.
It has to do with free speech because it is a political tool. Pretending otherwise is about like pretending ACORN is a non partisan community organization. On paper, legally, sure. On the ground, in reality, not so much.
That is why we resist, and why the internet is FAR better as the wild west, with no limits whatsoever.
You’ll never be able to legally maintain Constitutional Free Speech on any Internet Forum. You can’t even insist or maintain Constitutional Free Speech on this forum of Free Republic.
There simply is NO SUCH THING on any Internet forum. Free Speech does not have any legal imperative or sway on any forum.
