The person who runs a forum such as this one (but not this one, I'm talking about forums in general), and who makes money from the advertising on the forum, should certainly be able to delete offensive material such as racial comments or child pornography.
And, of course, he/she can do anything he/she wants, since he owns the forum; it is a for-profit venture.
However, should the forum members tolerate censorship of material which disagrees with or simply discusses how the forum is run? Should they have any say in the forum's operation?
