Just when I am all happy and giddy over the recent (in my opinion HUGE) victory for free speech, this kind of thing happens. Jiminy Cricket, it’s like two steps forward, and one step back. Free speech is free speech, whether I happen to agree with it or not! NO matter if it offends someone.

I really do like one of the commenter’s comments so much I’m going to quote it here (because I know some of you lazy people won’t follow the link).

I would like to apologize to all those individuals who had someone come into their residence, put a gun to their head, and forced them to read this individuals website.

To the rest of you who were offended but were not forced at gunpoint to read the website in question, I would like to offer free lessons on how to use your computer.

The course syllabus for the first week:
1. “How to click the back or home button on your browser”.
2. “How to shut off your computer and walk away.”
3. “How to enter in a web address EX. http://www.billofrights.com/”
