In my opinion the right of dissent to the point of insult is a crucial component of free speech. Everyone has the right to be be offended. No one has the right not to be offended.
So Just what IS 'hate speech' ??
I am thinking that htis PC business is getting out of hand and far too many people are getting TOO precious because there is money in Anti-vilification.
Sad but true.
