I disagree and agree. I'm sure some people use their lj as an opportunity to put down people behind there backs. On the other hand, the whole point of the lj community is to express your opinions and ideas that you may not be able to face to face (as much as that can sometimes hurt) for some people using me as an example sometimes the only express the way to others through writing something to them. Sometimes its a good way to release some of things inside of you that you would not have been able to but into words if you were in person. I think lj journal is meant to provoke people in a way. Its to make you think. If every one on live journal were talking about how much fun they were having all the time on live journal how much fun would that be to read? Even when I'm talking about someone in a negative I try not to name them and I don't say profane things about them. I think lj journal is a great way to connect with other people on an intellectual level. There are so many good communities that you can use to do that. About getting suspended for things people have written. I don't know about you but I trust the people on my friends list not to do that. All at the same time reading to deep into the things people have posted isn't a good thing. You shouldn't take the things people have written for fact. And another suggestion, if you are offended by what others have posted I suggest you either disallow their posts or just not use live journal.

Sorry I felt the need to express my opinion on that one. On another note see you tonight!

I agree with everything there 100%. Especially the friends things. I made that post friends only. Meaning their on my friends list because i obviously dont intend for them to print my opinion, MY journal for an adult to see. And what the hell would the principal have to do with this? Its like taking pages out of someones diary and reading it to the world.
Anyways, Laura i couldnt have said it better myself.
