Do humans have free will?

What are some good philosophers and arguments to look at on the topic of free will? (both for and against)

A lot of contemporary philosophers with scientific backgrounds, like Sam Harris, argue against free will. Who are the contemporaries who argue for it?

I am sick and tired of this. Every day I come to /lit/, and every day there is at least one thread up with an OP image of an attractive woman dressed scantily and posing seductively. It's probably the same one or two people who do it honestly. Let me tell you something, you faggot pieces of shit who are doing this: you are the poster child for everything that is wrong in literature, art, and society as a whole today. You are incapable of coming up with anything creative, thought provoking, or of substance, and you lack even the smallest modicum of intelligence, so you use "style" and "flash" and pizazz in place of it and to draw attention to yourself, because that's the only way your SHIT "creation" and ideas would ever get seen by anyone. And before you say anything, this has NOTHING to do with the fact that I don't have a girlfriend. Anyway, I will be petitioning the owner of this website to ban your asses, so enjoy being able to post here while it lasts, because it's not going to last long, just like you that one time you convinced an obese girl to let you fuck her..

I'm not saying he's the be-end, know all of philosophy, nor am I putting him on a pedestal like a lot of fedoras do, but he made an attempt to philosophize about the nature of free will.

I'm just looking for other arguments to either support free will or determinism, not some philosophy fan boy shit.
