Shambles, really.   That your third point of view matches exactly the "No Censorship!!! Goddammit!" school of thought is merely one of semantics?   I expected better of you.   Never mind.

Right.   If a group of people really wish to have a moderated discussion, am I correct in thinking that you would deny them any means to do so?   No matter how many, and for what reason?   You would deny them such a forum.

Because it is wrong for people to deny others the right of expression?    And any code of conduct that allows "offensive" material to be removed, is such a denial.

So, in this brave new world, no group shall agree a code of conduct between themselves, for it could be politically uncorrect on any stranger who barges in on them.   (Am I really getting this right?)

And if you arrive unannounced and unwanted, and you wish to make a recruiting pitch for pedeophiles, I not only have to let you have your say, I must leave your diatribe intact for evermore in case someone else wishes to read it? You ask of me, sir, more than you will grant unto me.
