To curb debate on important issues that affect the community, such as the Olympics, where lottery funds ought to be directed, the role of Councillors, benefits and appraoches to successful integration and the rest, would mean that one would curb free speach and thus be attacking one of the most significant principles of democracy and freedom.

And how exactly would it be curbing the debate were you to put a disclaimer on your posts that they were your thoughts and yours alone? What exactly is the connection there?
