Sorry Jesse, just had to get your blood up a bit. ;)
There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    What about the dude in Jersey who got fined for using a racial slur? Now, yes I agree that it is an assinine thing to do---but being fined??? What happened to freedom of speech in this country?

    No matter how stupid or assinine, we have a right to free speech, period.

    There was also a story about a Missouri town that wanted to "ban" cursing. Being from Missouri, I'm embarrassed.

    Steve, It's from the UK, you know, the place that mirrors the horrors of the US 15 years in the future if we continue down our current path. ;)

    It amazes me that many of the writers who predicted and feared all these things - George Orwell, most notably - were FROM the UK. You'd think they would have paid attention.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    That's pathetic.
    Political Correctness'.........defined

    "A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."
