Hello,

I just wanted to add- those Rwandan radio jockeys would have been more properly charged with conspiracy to commit murder (I understand they provided names, addresses, and encouragement to kill) on a massive scale. The effect would have been much more profound, and would not have required a policy of legislating against 'hate,' a concept that means as much to me as a war against 'terror.'

As for having the right to be vulgar around children in public space? I absolutely assert that right.

Meanwhile, I equally assert my responsibility to do no such thing. I feel many responsibilities as a human being that have nothing whatsoever to do with my legal rights.

Do children have the right to scream loudly around me? Even if it offends me? Even if it's in a theater for which I've just paid $12 to see a movie I've really been wanting to see?

Thanks, T - you remain reasonable, as always. I agree with your point.

I was once thrown out of a toy store for cursing... Not my proudest moment.

In my defense, when I'm playing video games competitively, it can be very difficult to control just what is coming out of my mouth.

What timing:

"The Senate passed groundbreaking legislation Thursday that would make it a federal crime to assault an individual because of his or her sexual orientation or gender identity."

Frem,

Mullah, not Ayatollah, that would be Shiia, and terrorisms appears to be much more of a Sunni problem.

As for why JT keeps necroposting Pat Condell, who, sure, is liberal, but some kind of facist, tho i do see the humor in any thread that has FMF and Auraptor on the same side.

I'm for free speech, and people like Pat Condell can rant, I'm just not interested in what they have to say. BTW, in case anyone hasn't said so, most of what he says in these videos isn't actually true. I don't know why he's classified as comedy. Maybe I just don't get it.

Muslim community reacts to minaret ban

inaret-ban.shtml?16954
As the dust settles following Sunday’s vote by the Swiss public to ban the construction of minarets, Lucas Chambers visits a mosque in Lausanne to find out how Switzerland’s muslim community are responding to the ban, and hears about an alarming letter sent to the mosque in the vote’s wake.

Necroposting Pat Condell... again.

I'm sorry, Pat Condell is anti-semitic in a way that Pirate News isn't. Aside from Condell being a fasist and a lying SOB, Anyone with issues with PN who doesn't have issues with Condell has, for want of a better word, issues.

I think the minarets is a new story, and should get a new thread. I disagree with the govt, it's an overreach to ban construction designs, If they want to ban Islam, just do it an stop pussyfooting around.

Kinda funny - Participant IS PirateNews, yet Participant has claimed to be a Jew (I have confirmation of this). Further, Participant has a righteous hard-on for all Muslims, just hates 'em all and wants them all killed TODAY, while with PN, it's all about the Jews, whom he wants all killed, TODAY.

Schizophrenia is a scary, scary thing.
