Hey, gang....
I originally posted this thread in support of a writer whom I greatly admire, and in defense of the first amendment, which I perceived to be in danger from an "offended minority".
While we have strayed from the original point, it's good to see that the first amendment is still alive and well.
"Let a thousand blossoms bloom. Let a thousand thoughts contend." Too bad Chairman Mao didn't practice what he preached.
Regards to all.
Mike
