-
- Get a clue. ALL postings on USEnet and other forums on the Internet are
- implicitly the opinions of the poster, and not the organization they
- are posted from.
-
- BZZZZZZT, why not get a clue and read news.answers and news.newusers.questions
- and learn what you're supposed to learn before you start acting like you
- know what you're talking about.
-
- Freedom of expression does not mean you can use someones machine, it DOES mean
- you can pay to connect up a machine, and express yourself freely.

-
- The Law in this country that would protect you is called the bill of rights,
- and the constitution, I believe. There was nothing unlawful in the
- original posting
-
-
- Note, I found the original posting personaly offensive, I'm Queer. I'm
- also not about to start shutting up opinions I detest.
