Your post offended me. It is obviously hate speech against people who don’t like hate speech. I know that it’s my choice to come to your website, but I think your blogsite should be removed by gov’t so that I don’t come here anymore, or anyone else who might suffer under your offensive speech …

j/k

points being… lack of personal responsibility among individuals, and the need to have a nanny-gov’t take care of and shield everything from us, fuels this debate over offensive content.
Basically, any view, except your own would fall under offensive speech, because when you say something I disagree with, you are attacking my already held beliefs.

I think orange is the best color, but you say red. Well, you have indirectly attacked my view that orange is the best color. I doubt we will ever see this type of speech banned, but what’s the big difference between saying that orange is the best and that same sex marriage is the best?

My high school law teacher made a simple point that we have just as much right to hold a sign that says “I love apple pie.” as we do “I hate same sex marriage.”

I guess we can still hold signs that say “I love apple pie.” … at least until Pumpkin becomes the favorite.

While I’m personally pro-choice, it bothers me that these groups feel they need to decide for everyone else on what is “appropriate.” It’s funny that while they come down hard on anti-choicers “because they aim to abolish freedom of choice by criminalizing abortion,” these same groups don’t think twice before using my tuition dollars to hold left-wing rallies that aim at using the government to coerce more money from taxpayers.

Apparantly one has the right to not be offended, but not to control their own wallet.
