You can't tell fire in a theater, and claim freedom of expression, for example. FreeBSD is also an international group and while we share many norms, there are also surprising differences in them or in the extent to which people think our community norms should be policed in contexts only tangentially related to the project. It's really quite a thorny problem to craft a response to that is both meaningful and would enjoy the support of most of this diverse community in whose name the response is created.
