BBoJ,
I love this! “You can have freedom from being offended or you can have freedom of speech, but you cannot have both.” I live in northern California where anything less than a sycophantic adherence to the liberal dogma are grounds for ostracism. I am a history and philosophy teacher and in my department I am the only conservative and believe me it gets lonely [but I never lack for a good argument. . .lol]. I was called a nazi when I voted for W in 2004. Of course the commenter was ‘joking’. Daily I rail against the indoctrination of our kids by leftist teachers and professors into their distorted view of ‘truth and justice’. I tell my kids to THINK FOR YOURSELF! Use your brain, research, don’t just take anyone’s word [even mine] for what is right, good, tolerant or acceptable.
Anyway, my 2 cents. Another reason I’m happy to be part of this community
