If you use heavy-handed government to suppress freedom of speech because someone finds it offensive, you will cause people to internalize their anger, and that always backfires. Suppression of free speech is similar to putting a lid on a rapidly boiling pot. Far better, I think, to hear exactly what your opponent thinks--allow him or her to vent, and then allow the listener (or viewer) to respond accordingly. Each has the freedom to choose whether they go elsewhere for news and views or (if it's your blog) to delete the nasty remarks and move on to the next topic. That way everybody feels better.EricaThunderpawshttp://jeffersonsrebels.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2900607157435934187.post-81837121689251167942010-06-02T00:26:51.151-05:002010-06-02T00:26:51.151-05:00Some time we get so sick of all the negative comm...Some time we get so sick of all the negative comments.
