Strictly speaking it is selection only if you remove them because
they are inappropriate to the milieu.  Hence, you can remove a joke
that is not appropriate to your beliefs.  It's when you say order
other people to blindly delete such jokes then you cross the line.

My two cents, anyway.

Hmph.  Good one.  Still don't like it.  Which, of course, is my sole
perogative and has no bearing on the ruling anyway.  I've got the
majority opinion and the two dissenting opinions cooling on my hard
drive in PDF.  I'll have to get around to reading up on them before
the end of this year.  Anybody want a copy?
