He has free speech.  He can put up his own web site and speak as freely as he wants.  We have no obligation to publish everything he writes.  That is called Editorial Control.  And he is also well aware that complaining about our editorial policy is a Violation of the CoC.  3 more days in the cooler.

I will admit that when I first was online I had the common, and totally foolish notion that free speech actually meant letting everybody talk and say whatever they wanted to.

Looking back it seems like an incredibly stupid point of view to have.  Because once someone 'owns' a press, as apposed to printing shit with someone else's, things change.  Ideas about free speech mature quickly.  Until then it is easy to have the foolish notion because you expect everyone else to have your own standards of behavior.

Which is rarely true.
