View Poll Results: Should just anyone be able to make Polls?
Yes, I have freedom of speech!
150
45.45%

139
42.12%
According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation I have had my voting rights revoked.
You don't like the polls? Don't read em. You have the freedom to do that, in the same way they have the freedom to make whatever polls they want. Don't sully everyone's HCRealms experience by trying to make it fit what YOU think it should be.
Bunch o' whiners, you should be ashamed of yourselves.
This.

What about people who, say, like the idea of polls, but don't like the way the polling concept is wasted? I, personally, have been avoiding this forum precisely because it's been clogged with "X vs Y" and "who's best for 119 points?" Best for what? *rolls eyes*
The right to free speech argument on the internet tends to make me chuckle a little bit. The "right to free speech" in the constitution only established that CONGRESS shall make no law restricting free speech. Proprietors of internet forums may restrict speech on their sites in any way they like.

This thread reminds me of a Mitch Hedberg joke. "I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to show it."

The 14th amendment expands the protections of the 1st to all levels of government, so it is not just congress restricted from making laws restricting free speech. (Though the Supreme Court has over-complicated what should have been a very simple ruling on this one...)
That said, proprietors of internet forums are not, to my knowledge, any level of government, so they are still not affected by it. They don't have to respect your right to free speech, which is why they can restrict access to polls if they want, or include a *** ******** **** ** ** ** ********************************** filter.
