Well, I don't really understand what the question is here. Maybe it's "why can't I spell?" or perhaps "why did I fail my Jr. High Civics class." The answers to these questions are obvious.
But, in response you our micro-rant I have to remind you that every freedom and liberty has some limits, and that limit is the rights and freedoms of others. You can't say "anything" you want. You can't say things that are libelous or slanderous, you could get sued. You can't say things that are fraudulent or seditious (look the words up). And you can't say things that endanger someones safety, like yelling fire in a crowded theater. If you do any of those things you will get sued or charged with a crime, and maybe convicted.
You can also be censored, but mostly in the case of violating public decency standards. You can't yell **** in a crowed theater when kids are present.
I've also noticed a recent trend of people vigorously defending their right to free speech, yet they do not have anything intelligent to say. Please don't be one of those people.

Freedom of speech means that the government cannot censor you. Private organizations can limit what is allowed on their property

You have to remember that yahoo is under specific internet codes and they also have their own terms for you to follow when you use this website. They are allowed to do this because while the public can access this website its also privately run. If you want a website where you can say whatever you want then its usually best to create your own.

SPEECH. BELIEVE. HEARD. SPEECH.
Your point will be made more clear if you spell correctly, the masses will drop to your feet. You have been reported again, huh? But you're not saying anything new or shocking, you're just cursing. Say something that will invoke a yahoo riot, and you will be happier when you sleep tonight.

Freedom of speech is for our country .. this site and many others are world wide you agree to their terms when joining them, you agreed to be censored. you had the option to not agree and not sign up, if you want a site where you can say or do whatever you like i suggest opening up your own.

Just go to your porn sites and express your freedom of speech there where nobody cares what kind of pig you are. There are all kinds of forums to express your perverted crap all you want. You're just pissed because nobody enjoys your lowlife, stupid attempts at getting attention here in this forum. Freedom of speech also includes the freedom to express your opinion of someone else's words. Evidently you are not as appreciated here as you are at I'mAPig.com

Freedom of speech only applies to what you say in YOUR house; not in SOMEONE ELSE'S house. Freedom of speech only applies to what you print in YOUR newspaper; not what you want printed in SOMEONE ELSE'S newspaper. Freedom of speech only applies on YOUR website; not SOMEONE ELSE'S website.
Do you see a pattern developing here?
Freedom of speech means the GOVERNMENT cannot tell you what you cannot say. Yahoo is not the government.
