Your argument was founded upon the notion that these statements were political opinions and therefore did not need to be, and should not, be modified. How would this be affected by granting the permission to remove the irrelevant crap? [I should point out, again, that we have no real business distributing political statements, and therefore this falls into the "irrelevant" category.
