I just banned someone from a mainstream site I run (with very good cause), and this muppet is sending me emails now about freedom of speech, constitutional rights etc, and even (I LOL'd) trying to sue me because of it.

The site is hosted in the US. Surfers / members have no rights on my site do they? I should be at liberty to ban people at will, it's a privately run site, and I'm not answerable to anyone, correct?
he has no rights on your site legally at all - you don't need to give him a reason even.

i do think if a private business were to kick out people based on race or religion they'd probably have a case.
