Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

a teacher in colorado compared a speech from bush to a speech from hitler and a kid recorded him and Bill Oreilly made him a martyr for it.
he only did it to spark debate.

it is impossible for me to censor you crustine, i do not hold any power over you. censorship is the FORCED silencing of a person, i merely refused to respond to your posts.
and the full page newspaper ad was, or at least i thought it was, clearly a joke. the point of including it was simply to show an instance wherein i would support censorship.
and as far as the other thing you said goes; well, uh, i think it should be relatively clear. it ceases to become understanding and starts to become endorsement when, uh, you start endorsing it.

I think that feedom of speach is essential. But at the same time, it MUST be tempered with civility and a lack of bigotry. Sharing of ideas in a logical, unbiased debate is fine. But when a person becomes bigoted (which is never unbiased), or acts in a way intentionally offensive to another it's no longer free speach it's an attack on another person's psyche. Debate's main goal should not be to offend another person but rather to exchange ideas, enlighten others, and ultimatly come to the right decision on matters. To often now debate is not for these reason's, people come at it with a single-pointed, closeminded approach. There is no open minds exchanging ideas, it's one person trying to trick, trap, and out word a person into submission, and acceptance of their point of view.
Freedom of speach is one of the most important rights a society can have, but people need to be mature about it to avoid it's abuse and revocation.

which is what I was trying to point out. Once you filter one thing, the control and power will want to filter more and more.
