   Well considering the pummeling it's taking from the homosexual crowd and the   
   global warming crowd I figured it had become obsolete.   
      
   We had the one lunatic who wanted to ban the Conservative viewpoint at   
   harvard, the homosexuals want to criminalize any critcism of them, we have   
   people talking about criminalizing disagreement over global warming. Hell   
   they even wanted to criminalize a kid chewing a pastry into  the shapoe of a   
   gun.   
      
   American media is rife with the lunatic left telling people what they are   
   allowed to say and when.   
      
   So, fuck off. They are your rules.

   Well I don't know where you live, but that doesn't happen around here. Why   
   don't you get a job and move out of government housing?   
      
      
   --   
   When the government is no longer constrained by the laws of the land, then   
   neither are the people.
