I can understand banning a topic you don't want covered on your website. But when you post material on the specific topic and then block legitimate responses to that material, it's censorship. I don't care what the topic is. You can do what you want with your website -- even censor it -- but I thought one of your goals would be to encourage discussion; not simply provide one-sided discussion. That's a technique of the Kos Kids.

When you say Horowitz "hits this one out of the park" when he defends ignoring parts of the Constitution because they are "technicalities," I have to say you are wrong - unequivocally wrong.

You are applying a pop-culture definition of censorship, the same one that allows Dixie Chick partisans to demand that radio stations play their music whether they like it or not, thereby attempting to deny the stations' own right of free speech. I did not allow Obama signs to be posted in my front yard. That is not censorship, it is the exercise of my own First Amendment rights, rights that Charles Johnson also has.

Censorship implies preventing you from expressing your opinion. What Charles is doing is exercising his right as owner of this blog stating what he considers appropriate topics and what will be removed. Nothing is stopping you from starting your own blog or publishing a book or standing on the street corner to express your views. Too many people view moderation on a free public forum as censorship.

Charles, you dont need 9/11 truthers or creationist BS or people chasing a Nirth cert when it really aint that important. The hardest part is keeping a clean house. And that means tossing out the trash.

Aye, there are plenty of comments - which I happen to agree with - questioning Horowitz's reasoning about ignoring "technical" violations of the Constitution. However, Charles has made it pretty clear in the, oh, half-dozen previous warnings that links hawking the straight up "Obama=nonAmerican" claim are not welcome. And frankly he's not the only one - I think many of the rest of us are also tired of that dead end. We're not going to suddenly be convinced otherwise, because frankly it's a stupid claim and there is no evidence for it (which is of course why the troofers are on it like dogs on stink).

OK Everyone -

As I am as much a "Law Professor" as the President-Elect - which is to say adjunct lecturer, back in the day, let me weigh in on the CENSORSHIP ISSUE.

1. The Concept of Censorship deals with GOVERNMENTAL LIMITATIONS on "SPEECH."

2. Charles, the Original Lizard and Head "Person" in Charge of this blog is by no stretch of the imagination a GOVERNMENT.

3. LGF is for all intents and purposes a PRIVATE CLUB, founded by Charles.

4. Due to all of the above, Charles DOES have the right to say and do - "MY WAY or the HIGHWAY," should he choose - as he has at times - some of which same I disagree with and have told him via the "Contact" link.

AND THAT'S THE WAY IT IS.

re: #52 DistantThunder

If he is being secretive for a good reason, it will out. It always does. Ask Nixon and Clinton. Some day someone will produce something if it really exists. If it doesn't they won't. Personally, I would have liked him to have cleared the air so that he could be president without all the paranoid stuff running around in the background like the hanging chad crap. But he decided otherwise. I think he made a poor decision, but then I never thought much of any of his decisions anyway.

I notice that WienerGT suddenly shut the frack up. How embarrassing, like he owns the place mates....

Censorship is the suppression of speech or deletion of communicative material which may be considered objectionable, harmful or sensitive, as determined by a censor. The rationale for censorship is different for various types of data censored

I agree that Charles has the right to set his own house rules, but by definition, he's acting as a censor, WHICH IS NOT A BAD THING. Setting the parameters for discourse is Charles' prerogative, and there's nothing WRONG with that

Bingo. I don't come here to wade through a, to borrow a phrase, "political cesspool" of kooks and bigots.

re: #150 goddessoftheclassroom

I prefer to think of it as a way of keeping a clean house.

The papers spent years building up a reputation for being standards and then go let themselves down chasing the easy buck. People actually respect standards. And sticking pages of nonsense aint much of a standard eh?

Charles has every right to keep a standard. It keeps what he says and what his blog says believable and honest. And thats worth protecting.

.... Now .. about that page 3 girls section we were talking about .....

The important thing about the spinoff links is that they are a good source and round up of news. If a lot of non sensical noise gets posted there then they become less reliable. Many bloggers now hit the am thread spinoffs first thing in the morning to see what's up, so if we use the garbage in garbage out maxim...

Ah well... I also shouldn't come here to argue over the semantics of terms like "censor"... or "social conservative", which I understand is also good for a flame war...

This is such a wonderful relief from that, I will gladly stand guard any time. What we have here at LGF is to be protected at all costs, and Charles deserves the credit for this paradise of sanity and reason in that cesspool.

Sorry, I disagree strongly. Setting rules about what cannot be posted at a private site is NOT "censorship." I do not and cannot "suppress" anyone's free speech, because they can simply go elsewhere and post whatever they want.

Only governments have the power to censor, by definition.

Saudi: "Arabs Waste Time Trying to Destroy Israel"

(IsraelNN.com) A Saudi Arabia columnist, in a rare expression of a pro-Israel view, wrote in the London-based Arabic-language daily newspaper Al-Sharq Al-Awsat that Arabs have wasted time and money trying to destroy the Jewish State.

Mash'al Al-Sudairi's column, translated by The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), stated that although the "Jewish 'occupation of a part of Palestine constitutes great oppression,'" the Arabs have a history of self-inflicted blows" resulting from opposition to the re-establishment of the Jewish State of Israel.

"When, in the early 1930s, we were offered 80 percent of Palestine, while the Jews were offered 20 percent, we rejected the offer. In the late 1940s, we were offered 49 percent of Palestine, and the Jews 51 percent, and we rejected that [offer]," al-Sudairi wrote.

He criticized the Arab world for exhausting all of its resources over the issue of "Palestine" and wasting money and time. I am positive, [and am willing] to bet and even to swear by Allah, that if only 10 percent of the money that the Arab countries invested in arming their forces during the futile fighting [with Israel] had been invested in what was left of Palestine and its people, the West Bank and Gaza would now be enjoying a living standard higher than that of Singapore," he added.

Sudairi also commented on Iran's occupation of three Persian Gulf islands. "With all the turmoil over the Palestinian issue, we have completely forgotten that other Arab countries have been robbed of parts of their territories, in broad daylight, and we never uttered a word of protest," the Saudi columnist noted.

It all depends on what the meaning of "censor" is. The Constitution provides that the government shall not abridge freedom of speech or freedom of the press.

But LGF is not part of the government.

We all engage in a certain amount of self censorship, with the exception, perhaps, of people with Tourette syndrome. For the few who provide a type of public forum, there is again some censorship. There has to be. If I allowed just anyone to break in

Hey, it's your site. Anyone wants to say something you find objectionable can simply go to another site that has different standards.

If you get too inflexible, you'll have no visitors. So far (although I'm admittedly new), I haven't seen evidence of too much starch in your shorts.

The only reason for yelling "censorship!" it to equate editorial choice or personal expression with suppression of Constitutional rights. Ironically, this is an attempt at actual censorship by effectively criminalizing such choices.

For those who are fuzzy on definitions, actual, literal, common-law defined censorship is right around the corner in the form of the Orwellian named "Fairness doctrine" and a proposal to extend broadcast "localism" to a requirement that "local leaders" (community activists) be included in programming decisions.

That Saudi was a brave man. I hope others are also brave.

Pop-culture prophets like Lenny Bruce and Hugh Hefner first started referring to things like the movie code and network standards as "censorship" back in the 1950s. At the time, they and their audience understood clearly that it was really a joke, an analogy by hyperbole. By the mid-60s, however, they had found that the brain-dead youth of the Boomer generation were so ill-educated as to take this strained analogy as a literal fact.

re: #181 goddessoftheclassroom

I disagree with that. Editing and censoring are not the same thing. An editor removes worthless crap (well, an editor SHOULD remove worthless crap) from a news source he/she is editing. Some other news source can run it, or the writer can publish his/her own news source. An editor is not required to run every damn thing people send in - or even required to print every letter to the editor.

I've been reading Lenny Bruce's autobiography and he was pretty much a lying, thieving scumbag moonbat.
