There's no 1st Amendment rights on a privately owned forum.
i don't mind the hate speech it's what makes Spurstalk one of the best sports forums on the internet...i just never understood why a pair of bare breast is so frowned upon considering the environment around here.
There's no 1st Amendment rights on a privately owned forum.
Why the lamenting? People have to try to get banned here, and when they want to be banned they are. It's not like they didn't know what they were getting into.
I'm guessing it was the penises and banging more than the breasts.
Anyway... they are banned for just a day, so I don't get the big deal or why anyone is even questioning it.
But I'm sure that I'll get tons of comments, messages, emails about "free speech," "civil rights," "uncons utional acts," blahblahblah...
lol...what did DMC do? He was posting just now.
LMAO the .
another one that doesn't get it
the operators of this forum obviously are operating following the 1st ammendment principles.
and btw it is a privately owned forum, but it's open to the public so they still have to respond to federal regulations.
lol that's the one newcastlekegbullsfan deathed-by-moderator sans playoff Rose implosion
tbh I think Magic's T-Cells is his troll imo
thought it was obvious
RIP DMC
They're dropping like flies...
He got banned indefinitely however.
Fitzpatrick its the most obvious troll account of his though.
Peace out Harlem and DMC, two of the three worst posters on Spurstalk are gone. AaronY is still here though.
Unfortunately it's only for 24 hours![]()
So let me get this straight: That's not acceptable (not that it should be, but a one day ban isn't going to discourage it), yet constant racist comments are? This from an interracial couple, with kids from all over the world, no less. That makes a lot of sense.![]()
He makes a good point though.
You guys are opening Pandora's box. The less reasons to get banned and in trouble the better this forum is. No one actually comes to the NBA forum to discuss basketball.
You forget how ridiculously tedious and annoying it is to post somewhere where you have to constantly be politically correct.
I came to the US for this very reason.
I got HH basketball reasons but what dd and DMc have done ?
You can still have fun without being blatantly racist toward certain posters. Me included btw.
I often get swept in the moment and join in on the "fun" of calling people be@ner and making fun of their culture or whatever. Gotta work on that myself.
It's ingrained in the culture down here. Anyone who doesn't like it can hide upstairs in the safe s that surrounds that place.
