I think I need a lesson from June Cleaver

I knew Mrs Cleaver most of my life,and I can tell you she was thoroughly disgusted with how Hollywood and Society had turned out before she died. It wasn’t long after she went on O’Reilly’s show that all the Sexual Harrassment claims were made public, and if it would have been made public earlier, She NEVER would have went on his show, She told me this to my face. She was a real sweetheart.

You’ve got it. Free sppech for some, not for others.

In fact, that’s now the basis for enforcement of many of the so-called laws in what used to be the USA.

Ummm....is free speech dead in this land of the free home of the brave? When did that happen?

It happened as we started to become the land of the fleeced and the home of the enslaved.

I really do not have a solution on how to handle someone who spews racial insults...

The best test is answering the question "How many people were forced to stampede out of the movie theater".

If the answer, as in this case, is zero... no harm no foul.

It's 1984 all over again. The fictitious 1984 that is.

I agree, How about not handling it, “authorities”?

We’ve pointed & laughed/gasped, over what has been going on in Old Blighty but here we are now.

Whomever passes & enforces those laws should be lynched.

Maybe he should claim to be a comedian — and bring a bag with a bloody severed mannequin head that looks like Trump.

".... I really do not have a solution on how to handle someone who spews racial insults...."

It's a free country. Since when is it against the law and subject to prison time to hurl racial insults? They have freedom of speech.

People have the freedom to just ignore them, which is what should have happened.

I can't believe I'm reading this article in America. This is something that would happened in Canada, not America.

The 2 guys should have self-identified as black, Muslim gay women and sued the school and police for discrimination.

Here is the House amendment to the the Justice for Victims of Lynching Act as well as the roll call vote

http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2019/roll108.xml

The Justice for Victims of Lynching Act (S 488) was already passed by the Senate....unanimously.

WOW! Makes you wonder what would happen if they played some of those old DIXIECRAT record songs from the 1960s such as

LOOKING FOR A HANDOUT or CAJUN KKK.

You had to ask for them as they were “under the counter” records, not for public display.

GiJust because some people have obnoxious opinions and the nerve to vouce them is no reason to start down the dark path of government in charge of what opinions may be expressed.

Unfortunate, ugly and rare. People need to mind their own business. Most of us have experienced unkindness of one sort or another.

Leave it to Beaver was one of my favorites. Little Rascals was probably #1.
