Truth doesn’t hide behind the skirt of regulation – or does it?
Great article by John Rappoport on the suppression of speech for political agenda.

Tolerance means anything goes. no right or wrong, everything is OK. You need to learn to tolerate those who like to rape, steal, live off welfare, and are religiously intolerant. When did you say you were born?

Indifference can lead to destruction.

I’m sure that we all want to make your acquaintance. “Equality” is the religious faith of the dunce.

I didn’t believe him, but I was still curious about the evidence he might advance. I certainly never thought he should be prosecuted for misrepresenting, or even for lying about, an occurrence open to historical investigation.

Anyone who volunteers for the task is not to be trusted.
