Freedom of speech



When I talked about people blogging and not liking getting comments… I never expected to see the arrival of an old friend who no longer holds the same respectful position in my mind as he did some months back. He posted certain comments, which I removed. Big deal. So, I went back on my original statement? Maybe. But the truth is… It remains my Blog and I have the right to limit what appears on it. Isn’t that so? Deleting comments is a power I have and this Blog is still open to public view. But since I have already told you to get lost… I guess, I meant what I said!
