View submission: Can we ban this extremely racist asshole?
I'm just saying, you can't have people bitching that he shouldn't be banned due to censorship or anything else unless they've actually read the User Agreements or any other "rules" and it states that it's OK for this type of behavior or it's omitted entirely. When you "use" this site, you automatically agree to the Agreements of this site.
In this case, he is clearly violating the User Agreement and someone is calling him out. Reddit now has to decide to enforce their own rules and delete ALL instances of this, ban the cause of the incident or ignore it all together.
I personally DGAF either way. I can spot an idiot when I see one and have the ability to ignore it.
PS. Upmodded your comment. You have good points although I think mine are better. :)
