I'm not sure what you are referring to by "freedom of speech." This is the Tapestry user list, not a country governed by a popular democracy (assuming that reference was to the US constitution). His breed of messages falls under the category of those titled "free XXX pics" and "best meds for less."

I'm sorry, but have you read his messages? He intentionally writes inflammatory messages, does not respond to questions or requests to stop behaving so offensively, and it is highly probable that he is in violation of the TOS for at least gmail and most likely also hotmail. I don't care to know if
