Therefore inspector watson I have deduced that you are trying to make a point by first drawing me in to this.
So that is why I say you are winding.

Hooray second page!
If you were close, I wouldn't have mentioned it. But complete other words aren't just bad spelling, its incomprehensible by every definition of that word. But this proves my point on Freedom of Speech perfectly.
See to most mods this argument, between Adele and I is stupid and useless. At every turn he's failed to answer questions and makes up for a lack of answers by trying to portray himself as someone whos outwitted us and is more clever than the rest of MusicBanter.
But most will come to the conclusion that he's a halfwit clown with no merit and no music knowledge but whos come here because he's a social outcast and needs attention. Unable to achieve it, he turns to internet villiany to give him human contact he'd otherwise be deprived of.
And how do we know all this? Because we let him speak. And like a Vice President Gore in 2000, he's tied the noose that hung his own reputation.
And this is why I'd argue against you Ethan. Hateful speech does more to isolate a group than it does to recruit. While its easy to find reports that the KKK's membership is growing, we have to question that source of those results and any agenda that source might have.
The best example I can give of speech condeeming more than supporting is President Ahmadinejad's speech at Columbia University where he said that we should support Intellectual discussion to the degree that the Holocaust might not have happened, and the absolute certainty that there were no homosexuals in Iran.
His support tanked. Even isolationists within the U.S. saw the man, after that point, as a legitiment threat based on a detachment from reality. While there are certainly things I find terrible and can't imagine a reason to speak aloud, I think the best way to combat them is not by regulation, taxation, or war but education. Truth has a way of winning out and I think exploration of such truth should be our foremost priority.
I mean, look at how its shown posters for their true colors, no?
