The mere fact that no one complains about language like this from May, in a forum which supposedly fights for freedom of speech, is prima facie evidence of the chilling effect of his violent language.
So your suggestion is to chill Tim's speech.
Yep, that's balanced.
TCP already suffers the lack of a sarcasm flag. It appears we also lack a hyperbole flag.
Actually Nomen misprepresents. Lots of people complain about Tim. that doesn't justify them in actually doing anything about stopping him from spewing. As much as I find is dribble dribble I'd be one of the first to stand up to stop anyone from limiting his access to the list or his expression of ideas irrespective of his word choice. This is one of the reasons that SSZ remains one of the few completely unmoderated nodes left on the CDR (Hi Igor you fascist fucking pig).
