'Scuse me tiv
You're complaining about intolerance then calling for the thread to be locked after you express your opinion? Kinda narrow minded of you.
Both of them had a point, but I think that neither expressed it in a way that was very tactful. Entertaining, but not tactful - that's part of the fun.
Freedom of speach does not equal acceptance of an opposing point of view. We can scream it all we want, nobody is required to listen.
Laws are generally written to discourage bad behavior. What is considered "bad" changes with our social priorities & currently prevelant ill tendencies. Right now, gang activity, drugs, alcohol, & street racing are amoung the social ills that are plaiging us. Law enforcement is responding accordingly - for the most part.
TropicalSVT is simply reflecting the growing sentiment that the United States has become too permissive of destructive internal rhetoric. Too many Americans are complaining about America, & rather than doing something to change it for the better, they choose to make America weaker.
Like my dad used to say, "Byachin' is easy - anybody can byach. Doin' stuff. That takes character.". TropicalSVT, thanks for doin' stuff!
