Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh! We're on a roll now folks! Will someone please tell me who "they" are? Because I sure want to be able to recognize em' when's I sees em'.
Have you looked in a mirror lately?
Here is a simple truth, there are people that want to take away free speech, and they are in this country. Some of them are quite open about it. If you deny that you are either so stupid you need help getting dressed, are willfully ignoring the facts, or are part of the group that wants to restrict speech and decided the best way for you to make a difference is denying that anyone wants to do it.
Brandon G. Withrow: Why Blasphemy Laws Are Not About Religion
You don't have to believe that there is a conspiracy afoot to take away people's rights to admit that there are people that, for whatever reason, want to tell people they can't say something. Even the "Just because you can doesn't mean you should" crowd is wrong here, the one thing everyone should support is the ability of anyone to criticize anything. If we give ourselves the power to tell people they shouldn't insult a religion, government, group, or person because of how it makes people feel, or act, we are actually giving the extremist who are willing to use violence the power to control society.
That will be chaos. Your choice.
