Freedom of Speech and Though

Me thinks it does not exist on this board any longer, certian threads keep getting deleated

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Nobody here ever promised you freedom of speech.

Freedom of speech does not apply to this board. Never has and never will...

It's a privately owned board & freedom of speech doesn't apply. QVC decides what stays & goes

The Q boards aren't the government. The First Amendment has nothing to do with the QVC chat boards.

Then it they want it their way have threads and comments scanned before they are posted, I still think some posters hit the Report button way to often

You can think whatever you want.

You just can't type whatever you want here.

Re: Freedom of Speech and Though

Freedom of Speech, is our right against Government persecution, for expressing dissenting beliefs. Of course it's not quite that simplistic, but, it's the gist of it.

It has nothing to do with a privately owned and administered message forum, or a company deciding what type of community they want to sponsor.

Monitoring does seem inconsistent, at times, but, it's QVC's dime and we can participate or not.

It doesn't bother me at all, and if it bothered me a lot, I would simply choose, Not.
