Josh AdamsThe First Amendment only applies to government regulation. not an internet message board moderated by a couple guys.
Second, the First Amendment only works when it protects the most reprehsible viewpoints. Nazis have just as much of a right to march (as long as that march does not include physical attacks), as the NAACP, DARE, or any other group. To sensor because one finds a certain viewpoint vile, is a scary thing. What happens if one day society finds your viewpoint "unacceptable."
It's got nothing to do with "liberal" although people like to throw that word around alot. In fact, Sandra Day O'Connor would probably laugh at being called such, considering her opinions in various First Amendment cases.
Bottom line, everyone should be able to say what they want (with general exceptions, i.e. "fire" in a crowded room). Of course, we all have the choice of just not listening.
