Good effort.
No points for content, though, as you missed the point completely.
Unlike certain others I understand that the concept of "free speech" is
a) granted by the government to the people, not by the webmaster to the troll and
b) free speech is not just my right to say what I want, but everyone's right.
What those crying like wee children want when they mean "free speech" is exactly what I posted above: a free pass for themselves to say whatever they want without having to face consequences, and everybody else to shut the f* up. That's not "applied fairly" (if fairness truly was what you wanted). That's as onesided as it gets.
