Free Speech Exceptions -- PCGS protects Free Speech!

DMWJR

There exceptions to the free speech rule. It's NOT absolute. Look up a little CON law on the net.

Yelling "fire" in a movie theater is not protected free speech.

"Fighting words" that are so mean and cruel that a normal person would not be able to restrain themselves -- NOT protected.

Then we have slander, libel, etc.

I think PCGS is exercising it's right to protect free speech, and weed out the "Fighting Words", slanderous statements, and the written libel.

The whole thing is ultra-American, and most of you only look at one side of it, as ususal.

Besides, they provide the service, so they can make the rules. They would have a much harder time censoring or booting members if it were not owned and controlled by them.

It all seems pretty straightforward to me, CU manages the website and they can do what they want. All this talk about them making a big mistake is definitely overdone. For some reason I just don't think their business is going to suffer because of this. While many dealers and collectors both post and lurk, it's business as usual behind the scenes.
