It looks like 108 years of being party of America has sure inculcated American values.<BR/><BR/>Are there a variety of questions that measure the popularity of free speech? My concern is that the particular topic will drive the results from place to place. How about "Should a speaker be allowe to denounce the country's leader?"Steve Sailerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11920109042402850214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26188478.post-1162075089490194602006-10-28T15:38:00.000-07:002006-10-28T15:38:00.000-07:00Heresy and blasphemy have nothing to do with scien...Heresy and blasphemy have nothing to do with scienctific discovery. Perhaps for some leftists blasphemy is some sort of proxy for open mindedness. Censorship of blasphemy or profanity has been a constant feature of Western civilization up until a few decades ago, when they were replaced by cultural Marxist inspired hate speech and political correctness.

Speaking to the press afterwards, the Chicano Caucus repeated said that the Minutemen were not a "legitimate voice in the immigration debate" and of the shutdown of Gilchrist said, "When they brought this speaker, this was an attack on our community and our families. We simply expressed our right to freedom of speech.” Where their right of freedom of speech means to not let others hear Gilchrist.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
