Now if only more people did that, the cancer on this site, whether it be Dermot+Antrim+Brontoraptor or the likes of FactMachine, Nomenclature and Hellno, all these bullies need to GO!!!!!!!!!!!! SILENCE THEM ALL, DELETE THEM WITH ADMIN POWERS!

That was the Prodigee regime and will always be if I ever do run a website. Rid the world of this cancer that will speak putrid stuff. They shouldn't be free to speak it, they should indeed be taught to shut up and speak properly. I am sick of seeing the racism, homophobia and outright personal attacks on this site.

Side: Yes.

Anything that disagrees with your narrow world views and you like other cowards use terms like racism and homophobia as it’s the normal cowardly tactic used as a weapon to shut down debate as you never have any decent arguments do you ?

Yes, some individuals professing allegiance with the Democratic and Republican parties attack free speech. That position is not limited to ideology. Rather, it is a common instrument of ideology to assert itself against and over other ideologies. Silencing opposition can be an highly effective tactic.

Side: Yes.

I am manic right now, and you pissed me off. I only p[ermaban Atrag. I'm sorry for banning you. I truely want to support free speech, so send me the links, and I will unban you. PM me if you want to know why Atrag is not welcome on my content. He did something really bad like libel, and threatened me, so Addlt said not to speak to him. Can you forgive me for being a bitch? I want to make it up to you.

Side: Yes.

Hey, don't sweat it. Benefits to you of me being an egoistic nihilist, I've got no hurt feelings (glad to be off the autoban though!). Besides, I suspect I was being a bit of an antagonistic pest. ;)

Side: Yes.

The NFL isn't suppressing free speach by protecting their brand, on their property, on their time, on their dime.

"Employees don't have a Constitutional right to free speech or freedom of expression at work. The Constitution's right to free speech only applies when the government is trying to restrict it. Even then, it's not absolute. ... So employers are generally free to restrict employee speech, at least while they are at work."

Yes they are. The players have the right to say what they want about whatever they want.

This is the same as saying a McDonald's cashier can chant "white power" while taking your order. No. They can't. McDonald's would fire them...legally, because it reflects poorly on their brand, on their clock, in their building, with their uniform.

People were boycotting the NFL in mass. The NFL's players don't have the right by default, to bankrupt the NFL, who is their employer, because they want to make a political statement.

It's identical to Roseanne being fired. She tweeted something. ABC didn't like her tweeting it. She's gone. Her "free speech" wasn't infringed. She was fired for a statement that didn't agree with their policies.

Excerpt from article-

"And then, its star sent out the kind of tweet that destroyed her career and took an entire show, along with its cast and production crew, down with it.

Roseanne Barr likely will never work again."

That's why you shouldn't make laws. By your claim, a guy could carry a giant swastika flag on the field, and the NFL couldn't stop him. Nonsense.

Side: No.
