Next, this is the Internet. And the Internet is coverd by the First Amendment, (freedom of speech etc.)
Actually, it doesn't.

The 1st amendment only prohibits the government from restricting your speech. It makes no limitations on private parties or the internet unless imposed by the government.

The owners of this site have the complete legal authority to restrict whatever speech they choose. It may or may not be honorable, ethical, fair, sensible, or justified, but they can do what they want.
