Off topic but I felt this is an interesting line from the G&Ms Civil Comments FAQs:
"We’re strong believers in freedom of speech and freedom of the press, but"...

As a rule of thumb, any time you see a "but"  after a statement of principle it means the preceding statement is a lie. Ie 
"I am not a racist, but...."
I believe in helping the poor, but...
I believe in gender equality, but ...
So if somebody says "I believe in free speech , but...

You get the idea.

Please mark all comments, even the rude ones you don't like, as civil, or the G@M censors will win.
