If you ask a question on here and it's deleted for humorous reasons why? It's still FREEDOM of speech. YOU CHILDREN see worse things on TV than reading "penis" plus they learn about that in elementary school. I don't care about the "terms" it's still limiting you.

This is aimed at adults. You curse and yell and fight with people in front of your kids. Even beat them and your spouse or partner of whatever. I love hypocrites!

You do not have to use this website. By doing so, you are agreeing to follow their rules. They can make those rules whatever they want. Yahoo is at no obligation to provide this venue for speech and it was created for a specific purpose and they can do what they feel necessary to maintain its function under that purpose.
You do not simply have the right to say whatever you want whenever you want to. Organizations can make rules, laws can limit your speech. For example, you can't falsely yell fire in a theater. You can't discuss patients. You can't divulge classified info. You can't disrupt a court. That is because those organizations have to maintain rules in order to maintain their function or your safety. Yahoo could charge you to use this site, which would clearly limit your ability to express yourself here. But you choose whether you use this service or not. By choosing, you also choose to follow the rules.

The first amendment says that the GOVERNMENT cannot abridge freedom of speech. Yahoo is a private institution. It's rules are clearly posted.

Ah, but all in all, Yahoo is not a public institution you see. This is a privately owned entity.
"The most basic component of freedom of expression is the right of freedom of speech. The right to freedom of speech allows individuals to express themselves without interference or constraint by the government."
George "Dub-ya" isn't deleting your stuff, Yahoo is.

I agree with you. However, they try to create a friendly enviroment so if you say something offensive or crude they have a right to say that they dont want you posting things like that on the website.
Technically the 1st amendment isnt being violated becuase you still got to say what you wanted, but it was just deleted.
But if you want to fight it I'll be behind you.

Every company in the US has the right to set its own rules, just as a church has a right not to allow profanity during its services.
