I wish these forums would be less tribal, and hold more sincerely to the value of free speech.
I have a hard time believing that you are this ignorant of what free speech really is.
Yon was free to say whatever he wanted and other members were free to say whatever they wanted to say too. This is exactly what free speech is. This forum didn’t shut Yon down. We didn’t refuse to allow him to make his posts and we didn’t tell him to leave.
