As for “offensive” speech? I’m a free speech advocate and can usually let it all roll off. I hate censorship. I have no sympathy for perpetual victims or pearl-clutchers. Open and honest discussion is the best.
Privately-owned forums, web-based or otherwise, aren’t bound by the first amendment. It is perfectly legitimate and reasonable for them to have rules of conduct. If someone doesn’t like that, they can leave. Membership here is completely voluntary.
