It is for GOVERNMENT censorship. Private business is not covered by it. And I'm sure someone of your obvious intelligence also knows that it does not give one unlimited rights to say anything one wants, even as far as the government is concerned. You're welcome in advance.

...also more importantly, whether it be in a government or private arena the RIGHT to censor might be different but the RESULT fostered through censorship is essentially the same - REBELLION/UPRISING and a renewed and even stronger motivation to fight for the believed cause by the participants involved...the masses can never be muzzled...SNAKE Snake,
The masses can usually be silenced rather easily. It is the individual that cannot be controlled! And it is the individual who those with power fear. For the individual, can lead the masses and challenge their power. So, lead on brother...lead on!

Are you insinuating that someone censored your posts here? I honestly don't understand your intent anymore, so please speak English to me about this post so that I can understand what the hell you're saying and why you're saying it to our die-hard fantasy football audience. I was out of the office today and I'm not quite sure what in the First Amendment's right you're saying. Thanks.
