Whilst I personally think that the people to whom you are refering have been
and still are acting out or order, I don't think calling for them to be banned
is appropriate.

After all, the reason that these proposed "social contracts", "codes of conduct"
and their ilk have caused so many people to become very angry, is because of 
the way that they call for persons to be expelled if they disagree with whoever
is in control.

I think that banning such people would make us guilty of the same crimes that
they have committed.
