I find this curious. If this site bans people for contrary opinions or agendas, what exactly seperates it from ADT or other places that restrict postings or freedom of speech. If anyone was in the wrong recently it was the flock of "old school" posters who started reposting the same message over and over again as a weapon of mass annoyance. Opinions shouldn't be banned here, but intentional spam should.

My understanding of the history of xpt suggests that Mr. Stewart started this site to stand upon his strong beliefs pertaining to free speech. Do I have to like Jamesn to post here? Do I have to like you Willie? Do I have to be nice to you or go out of my way to preserve your sensitive feelings? Do the people I am "attacking" really possess such meager means to defend themselves intellectually that removing me from the community is the only way to react? Interesting community.
