I'm a liberal. I want a straight forward way for making the relevant authorities aware of abuse that is received by someone
I'm a liberal. I don't want the act of "reporting" someone to the authorities to be boiled down to a statement of "I don't like this person"
I'm a liberal. I want people's views to be respected
I'm a liberal. I understand some people don't want to hear some other people's views

Try to keep it civil, I don't delete comments unless obliged to or feel the thread is getting too out of hand, so don't make me do it.
