I think it is dangerous for the administration to take on the role of selecting which posts to allow and which to not allow. I think there is already enough editing of posts demanded by administration. It might be the mission statement of PB to allow for free speech, but to be able to admonish a poster or block their posting based on their behavior.There are certain posts that I wish had not appeared on the boards, but it has always been within my power to select which post to read and which to avoid. Even if there is no hint in the subject line as to profane or "uncivil" language, I usually stop reading at the point I come across such verbiage.
