Though mostly a lurker, I agree.  If people are kicked off the list for
expressing an opinion on the subject then it is not a list I wish to be a
party to.  On an electronic conference in the OK there was a case of someone
who really upset people with his opinions.  His account was withdrawn.  We
kicked up such a fuss that it was given back within days for although we
disagreed with his opinions we supported his rights to express them.
