The ultimate problem with all censorship advocacy is that it assumes the existence of a One True Definition of what should be censored. One absolute set of criteria which can be used with every person and in all situations to separate speech that is "unacceptable" from that which is permissible under their limited definition of "free speech". Without that definition, it just becomes a collection of crybabies with varying degrees of fragility bringing down the authoritarian hammer on things they don't like.

And the people who want to determine the One True Definition are the same people who think truth is relative, morals are situational, and logic should give way to emotions whenever you might hurt someone's feelings.
