Freedom of Speech

Well, I don't wanna bring this to a bunch of people because I might have interepreted this wrong. But here goes.

I was in the IRC with Wizzup and everyone else, and I heard Wizzup say "I wished the guy (the myth busters guy) would die", then a message saying "but of course he won't." I respect the mythbusters man, and I didn't think it was funny, and I said "I think wizzup die" or something along that.

Now, I get kick banned. I thought ok, ok. Wizzup is a little angry, he will unban me after he realizes I just said the same thing about him that he said about the mythbusters guy. I mean, the EXACT SAME THING.

I ask Jesus to email him about it, and this is what Wizzup says back……


1. I have not stated (that I remember) that I agree with his war policy EVER!!!!!!
2. He says I should die?
3. He lol's.

I am extremely pissed off and I maybe am missing something, but this seems completely BULL that he is able to do this and is abusing his powers.

So I'm being punished because of my Political views. Really, really not cool; at all, so if I don't agree with you, basically you would kill me. Is your name Mao?

One more thing, to look at this in another perspective, if I watched football and he hated it, he would kill me. Yay for difference.

the American constitution does not reach to IRC, I'm afriad.

although to me, it does look like you've taken Wizzup's words out of context, from your screenshot, we dont know if he was talking about you at all, he could have just been having a conversation about McCain in general.

we should hear Wizzup's side of the story as well i think, so I'm going to wait till he posts.

Wizzup?

I banned you because you said "I hope wizzup die."

Like you said, 'I never said I agree with his war policies', then why do you think I am even talking about you?

Notice the '<@Wizzup>: lol'.

I'm all in for freedom of speech, but I don't want people to wish me dead.
Also, I am not forcing you to change your view on politics, you can be as conservative as you want.
I am not the one with an Avatar saying NOBama.

Ok once again, you wished someone to die aswell. How is that any different? Cuz of course he's famous and he'll never know blah blah blah, whatever you come out with, its exactly the same.


EDIT: I suppose you might not be, but Jesus said he asked if you will unban me and then sent me your reply which I was guessing was that.

Wizzup?

It is not. You directed it at me, while I was around. If that guy, whatever his name may be, was in the IRC channel, I would not have said it.
Pointless discussion anyway.

EDIT: I think we should make a sub forum for IRC complaints.

If obama was next to me, I'd castrate him for all the babies he permits to be killed, cut his tongue out for the lies he's said, saw his limbs off for the people who will end up dead because of his gun control policies, then punch him in the face for his senseless economic policies.

Chea…this is going to be a -bad- four years..

More ontopic though, is Ejj still banned? If he is, just unban him and lets be done with it?

Is it really necessary to use your signature to advertise your political views? Your response comes close to a radical view… IMHO SRL signatures should not be the place to promote radical views of any kind. There are places @ SRL where you can freely advert your views, but not in your sig.

I would like to see Seniors giving out the right kind of signals to the community. Don't use SRL to impose your political/philosophical views on others.

IRC should be used with some caution. Seem like you never know what people copy/paste. It is dangereous to speak out loud at public channels.

Thats why you'll never see me there.
