2 things...

Babelfish will free your soul... if not totally accurately.

Did not want to continue this thread but I really wanted to answer directly eTiMaGo. Initially, it thank you for your spectacle for support in favour from my point of view. I am not sure that another really includes/understands. Secondly, I want to answer your quotation of the "price of freedom of expression..." Never carried out just how much refuse one should tolerate until the life in the United States. Seem that the bad attitude is the standard here and the idea "of free country" and "freedom of expression" is the absolute and undeniable justification in the absence of the personal liability, the consideration for others and the self-discipline.

whooo I must have missed something here. I also have only seen maybe two locked threads. And I think they were appropriately locked.. but then again, I don't remember which threads they were.

Freedom of speech is a touchy subject because with our government *rolls eyes*, freedom of speech means freedom of SOME speech... You can't go around saying terrorism rocks and not get an angry mob of people, including the government, coming after you.

Now, what I believe is important is RESPECT. That word is so lost nowadays. Kids don't respect their parents anymore, etc. etc. Anyway, we need to realize that not everyone is going to think the same thing as us. And if they are stuck in their mindset, it doesn't matter what we say, they will not change their point of view. But that's what makes us all so unique. Why do we want everyone to share the same point of view.. things would be quite boring. We need to be open-minded towards what others have to say but not give up our own opinions. We are able to understand the other side but still, we will have our own opinions.

I think I'm rambled on enough.. and I have a lot more thoughts but I will stop here.
