just because its on twitter, it doesn#'t give you a free pass

If you spewed race hate etc whilst standing pona soap box in the middle of the high street, you'd get nicked. why shou;ld Twitter be any different?

If people don't bother to take the time to understand the various laws that govern free speech, moral behaviour etc, and think that it being on Twitter makes them somehow immune, they shouldn't whinge when that turns out not to be true.
