Please don't let banner blindness prevent you from reading the note immediately below:

{{notice|1='''Definition of "forum"''' - This page will be broken up into many sections. Some of them are specific to the wiki this document is hosted on. Others will be for mailing lists, forums, etc. }}

== Rule A - With freedom of speech comes the responsibility to use it wisely. ==
This rule is intended to be a counterpart to the [[W:First Amendment to the United States Constitution|First Amendment to the United States Constitution]]. Particularly the "freedom of speech" part.


=== Comparison to the US First Amendment ===
The [[wikipedia:First Amendment to the United States Constitution|First Amendment to the United States Constitution]] states:

:''Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.''

There's a lot mixed up in that. Some things that people often cite out as core principles of the U.S. Constitution derived from the First Amendment:

* Freedom of speech
* Separation of church and state (broken up into "separationists" and "accomodationists")
* Free exercise of religion
* Freedom of the press
* Freedom of anonymous speech
* Freedom to speak truth to power

Each of these may need to have separate rules. For purposes of this set of rules, "Rule A" will focus on "freedom of speech".
{{notice|1=As of 06:29, 14 April 2020 (UTC), "Rule A" will focus on "freedom of speech". TODO: remove this note before finalizing.}}
