Why are you stomping on my rights? -In the many countries that do have the right to free speech, this means (with obvious exeptions) the government cannot arrest you for saying anything. Many countries contain free speech in their constitution which can only apply to the government for enforcing or creating laws. -As most companies and organizations are owned by private individuals, they are only restricted by laws that apply to people and their businesses. The free speech sections contained in constitutions only apply to the government, restricting the kinds of laws that it can make. So no, this does not impact your right to free speech. +We do respect and support freedom of speech. Most would agree that we should stop the line somewhere to keep speech and opinions from going too far. Remember that the Open Code of Conduct is a template for communities to integrate one in their website. You are free to edit the code of conduct so it can fit into your community better. ## Thanks
