You seem to have a big problem with Freedom of Speech. Can it be that you're also a pseudo-patriot hiding behind the name of one of the greatest founding fathers?

When I initally mentioned banning the cartoon film "Bambi" I was just venting my frustration. As a hunter, I get really disgusted with those who oppose hunting based on that damnable cartoon, which has no basis in reality. I realize that they have every Right to be as ignorant and uninformed as they want to be, but I still consider their vancant arguments a form of noise pollution!

Tommy- I'm equally disgusted with you! So what if I make a crack about banning that stupid cartoon? We do have Freedom of Speech in this country. I can say anything I want- no matter how wrong, or politically incorrect it may be! As long as my speech doesn't endanger the lives of other people (such as yelling "fire" in the proverbial crowded movie theatre) I can say any damn thing I want to say- whether you like it or not! I'm not looking for confederates, cronies, toadies, lackies, goons, or approval from idiots.

Before you go labeling someone else's speech Nazism you should take a long, hard look in the mirror! I realize that this may be a hard habit for a knee jerk Liberal to break. If you don't like what's being said, then don't listen!

I would die to defend your right to be a moron. I never said you shouldn't say what you like. And I can say what I want. I can say that you advocate book burning. Because you did. That's what free speech is all about. You get to say dumb things and reveal your true feelings about things, and I get to point them out and highlight them.

Just for the record, I'll set the record straight on the books you advocating burning. I asked;"Any books you want burned while you're at it?" You said this;
Since YOU asked, I can think of two: "It Takes A Village" by Hillary Clinton, and "Earth In The Balance" by Al Gore.

Just to make sure you don't get away with misleading people. Now run along kid and finish your homework before you play your video games.
