2 things, this board is for vintage stuff, Leon will curtail participation if someone only posts about Upper Deck or new stuff....
Second, freedom of speech is misunderstood by most folks. The Constitution does not guarantee us freedom of speech. That isn't in there. The Constitution is a power limiting document, not a right giving document. It does not give us freedom of speech. That is how it is taught, and it is wrong. What the Constitution does is limit the powers of the federal government. The language is that Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech. It limits what Congress can do.
So this isn't really a free speech thing anyway. I'm just attempting to draw attention to the situation that is slowly growing... a wealth of knowledge is slowly slipping away.
