Yep. Nobody has an innate right to post to a newsgroup.
Or, as we summarized in our Constitutional Law class in college:
"Your right to free speech does not mean you're entitled to a pulpit".
You remind me that there is a sizable fraction of people in the US
who believe that there shouldn't be free speech.
That's not right, Mike. I can write letters to the editors of all the
magazines I want. None of them is obliged to print my letters. I can
stand up in the middle of a movie theater and espouse some political
opinion. I'll be escorted out. I can attempt to heckle some politician
during a speech. I'll be shown the door.
There are venues where you have a right to speak and venues where you
don't have a right to be heard.
