You’ll find the answer if you read the post I responded to. > [@Cesario: shut the fuck up, you gross fucking asshole](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/cesario-shut-the-fuck-up-you-gross-fucking-asshole/527954/24): > > All I have to say is that if TPTB let this nasty individual continue on his merry way, especially if they allow him his own little fapfest, that **every person who reads this board who is also a mandatory reporter get on the stick and inform law enforcement that there’s a venue that is encouraging his behavior. Nasty perverts may have First Amendment rights but companies have personhood as well, apparently, and can be held accountable for the behavior they enable.** Emphasis mine. Like you, **Muffin** , I’m not a lawyer. Unlike some of us I presume no legal expertise. But I do know when someone is trying to create a legal problem for the board in order to prove a point, and I know how those things are generally dealt with, not to mention that posters are not supposed to use the board to start a campaign. So I thought it was wise to point out that this was not a good road to go down. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/do-not-pressure-posters-into-ingoring-professional-reporting-requirements/527979)._
