There seems to have been some concern earlier in this thread regarding the rights of the inaptly named Joy Bringer to post what he / she likes in the name of free speech. Perhaps this is correct - free speech is, after all, important (no matter how abhorrent I may find his / her views). If, however, you believe in the principles of free speech it is inconsistent to demand that others should not reply with their own opinions. Surely this decision should be a matter for the individual (and not a matter of mudcat policy).
