Kitty can correct me if I'm wrong, Alison, but when this system was installed, there was a standard 'bleep' filter arranged for the younger children's journals. My run of the mill profanity would be filtered out, but Mr. Marko's rather creative insults would not be.
I didn't start anything of a witch hunt and I am still waiting to hear back from the Professor. Still, I think you can understand how events of late would leave students concerned about anyone who was so blatantly disrespectful of who and what we are.
Freedom of Speech? He didn't post in his own journal, Alison, he posted an insulting and threatening post as a staff member. That negates his right to 'free speech'.
As for people being afraid "unnecessarily"? That's precisely why I wrote to the Professor. We shouldn't have to be afraid. Period. And if Mr. Marko cannot moderate his language and opinions, we deserve to know why so we can deal with our own reactions to it at least.
