	While i would not feel qualified to speak on the validity of your
complaint, I would point out that your First Amendment rights can *ONLY* be
violated by the government.  A private (or non-government) group can not
violate them.  I would also point out that by using rhetoric that comes from
the time when I was a baby that you're not likely to influence anyone outside
of the particular group you are from.  As for censorship, that's a difficult
definition in this instance.  You are certainly able to get the information
out in other ways.
