Also there has to be a line on freedom of speech, usually it would run along with most peoples common sense and decency.

otherwise freedom of speech would include vast representations of racism, sexism and various other prejudices to the extreme.

Yes everyone should be allowed to speak there mind, but within reason of common grounds of decency.

Anything above this, is exactly most of the things wrong in society today.

Obama winning from this point of view is a massive step in the right direction. But the really good news is, Obama is one of the most intelligent, well rounded Presidents in recent times, and he has a manifesto that excites many.

Obviously not all, but you cant have everyone on your side all of the time can you.

The Americans must learn this :
to LIVE their lives and to LEAVE the others ( I mean people from other countries) to LIVE their lives

Blah Blah Blah...





"I'm JORDAN792 and I approve this message"

On Wednesday, Politico reported that Obama was strongly considering putting Kennedy at the head of the Environmental Protection Agency.


Robert Kennedy Jr
This would be so cool, and very good for the environment, I know Bobby and his family from Nassau, where he also fought to help save a large natural/historical area from destruction on Clifton point, talk about a complete turnaround on environmental policy for us.

You're right: of all the prez picced there, only Johnson (and maybe Lincoln) was an 'enacter' like FDR. Right now, Obama is a figurehead, like Kennedy; hopefully he'll be able to be his own enacter!

No way. I think you're wrong.


Heheeeee... you're tough with me... too much English to read...
Yeah... euhhh... The Canada's Human Rights Commissions... hmmm... this is a funny weird thing.
To reach judgments on the basis of no fixed law isn't really a bad thing if the judgments are smart & right.
So it is enough problematic. In Canada, things are so badly planned & organized, they seem completely lost
between being tolerant and drawing a line... and some visible minorities, especially some radical Muslims are taking advantage of it.
This is sometimes so f*"¨n dumb!
Usually, there's some problems with the immigrants who take too seriously their beliefs & traditions.
Those stupid stories about young Muslims students who carry their kirpans at school,
or the Muslim member of the RCM (Canada's national police force) who wear his turban at work... we are
sometimes incredibly & stupidly tolerant. If I decide for any reason to move to an Arabian country
(I'll not do it), I'll not wear my hockey helmet at work.

HOPE

I VE BEEN TOLD THAT IF UR A MUSLIM AND A MAN U CANT BE asked for ur papers by a chick cop, a female cop...... (sorry for capslock)

we are just...happy...like Claude said we feel like ...breathing.....and whatever it was time to party for sthg......for months we have a shit to party....

Yeah... they asked for that right. But the answer was ... "F*@# YOU" ... in a much more diplomatic way.

Amen!

HI

Hey I thought this topic was off limits? BAN them all

*said something that didn't makes sense.... so nvm*

The problem there is that the government gets to define "common grounds of decency" And that's a slippery slope. If you don't defend the whole freedom, then its gonna erode away piece by piece.
