[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ritten: [QB] mmm, 3 words <FONT SIZE=+2>FREEDOM OF SPEECH</FONT> People should be free to say what they want, when they want, [i]how[/i] they want, not to be tied up to how some feel that such and such is offensive. I would much rather be called an ignorant, stump-jumping, half-assed, lazy, bastard, than, say, have a goofball shoot at me. Tell me I am going to burn in hell for my sins, over burning me at the post. People are [i]way[/i] too touchy about the words, when they kindly ignore the little actions that lead to bigger actions that do harm people. Like the kids in one of those school shooting... "Gee, he [i]made[/i] a hit list, but we thought he was joking..." If he had <U>said</U> he made a hit list that's one thing, but to see the actual thing is another. And.... A seperation of Church and State can not happen, with out the complete and total removal of one or the other. Both touch us daily, whether we believe or not, so to put a politician in to a situation where he can have no thoughts or voice about his opinions and thoughts is wrong. Unless you can do it. The matter of tact is usless, since what we find, as individuals, tactful is different. I don't find it odd to discuss a customers late account with them while they are rolling a joint, I could careless about his hobbies. He paid his bill after he finished and lit up, even offered me a hit. I guess this boils down to, don't cast the stone unless you are perfect. (Damn, that has religious context, I should be burned......) [/QB][/QUOTE]
