In the year 2006 do you think it is right for someone/somepeople(not the majority) to force their opinions on what you can read/see....Discuss

[weeksy2]

nope, i think it's 100% wrong.

i can however to an extent see why clubs like DSC must censor certain things like Dealer comment and criticisms, but on the whole it's very wrong.

A public forum should in theory be exactly that.

If it keeps the peace, keeps the sensible option,does'nt involve politics or religion and that the opinion is made by a proper elected official then why not, unless you would rather have anachy. Opinions are like ********s every one's got one, but ever one cant be right other wise thats where things only end up if too many people throw in there opinion. Is'nt that why we have Team Leaders, Manager's, Editor's,Goverments to do it for us. If some one ask's for your opinion. Give it if not Butt out , thats my policy 4D

Yes its right that a degree of censorship exists, personally I have no desire to see violence, violent images, exploitation of children etc on for example a motorcycle forum, thats not to say that they should be censored per-se but it should take into account what the viewer or reader expects or its reasonable to assume exists there. But therein lies the problem, who decides what we can and can't see and where can we see it ?

if you don't like the rules create your own little virtual world or work within the rues to change them to what you want, thats the other bit that goes with free speech, democracy...

It looks like Berto's post is in reference to his bike for sale posts.

oh, thats different, thats advertising not a discussion on censorship, but thats probably a bigger can of worms round here than censorship though

Evening,

I will take a further look into what has happened today (I've just walked through the door) and speak to Eamonn tomorrow.
