Hardly. Please do not put words in my mouth.


I'm not putting words in your mouth. Although your sensitivity to
the statement is interesting.


I fully support the right of folks like Mark Morgan to spew their
excrement all they want.


However, I also realize that freedom of speech does not mean you are
entitled to a free printing press provided by the government. Your
freedom of speech does not mean I have to be forced to listen (or
read) what you type.



Tell me Mike, 1) do you read each and every posting in this newsgroup?

2) Do you have a kill-file, or selectively choose to ignore postings
from certain posters?


If you answered either No to #1 or Yes to #2, then by your definition
you are practicing "censorship", aren't you?


Do you read my posts? I've more than once posted that I have maybe
a hundred or more posters from the rra groups in my bozo bin. I haven't
seen a post from Mr Morgan for a long long time, until he started
posting in rec.radio.amateur.antenna when the gang started branching
out. That's what prompted me to get Xnews, and all those problems go
away.

But here is the crucial difference. *I* choose who I see and who I
don't see. Not you, not some group of "moderators" who don't like
someone, or have arbitrary reasons about what is right or wrong to post.

Perhaps you don't understand what might be important about that.
Perhaps you like it that way.
