It has been well established that the right of free speech doesn't equate to the right to post anything one wishes on Free Republic. Posts that don't meet forum standards are pulled every day.

In my opinion advocating the rape of prisoners doesn't meet the definition of justice as praciced inthe United States. Most of the folks posting rape-related comments probably don't believe it, either. They're joking, most likely. Those few who really do mean it should rethink their ideas of how the US penal system should work.

All IMO, of course. If the mods don't care to pull the "funny prison rape" posts, I'll have no choice but to overlook them.

By the way, aren't you curtailing my free speech rights by asking me not to express an opinion on the subject?

Where in my post did I ever say not to post anything... I asked that you not come here and try to be arbitor of what others are saying, and I also stated that if you were offended by comments talk to the mods...

Never did I ask you to stifle your opinion, but the way it is written does come of preachy, and I was only commenting that, that is not well recieved...

The reason Mods don't pull a lot of those comments is they usually are able to tell when it is done in humor or as blowing off steam...

I am just saying that we get to much of the... Thou shall not do...... kind of posts and they are not well recieved... never (point it out if I did) did I ask you to supress you comment. Opine if you must..
