SCOTUS

     By and 8-1 ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld our right of free speech, even if it is hateful speech.

     I had blogged about Fred Phelps before, saying as awful as his protests at funerals were, they are the extreme examples of free speech.

     Have at it Reverend, it is your right. But if you believe you are going to be greeted by a chorus of angels singing your praises when you die, I suspect you are mistaken.

Ban the ignorant hateful comments!

     An Op-ed piece in the New York Times sings my favorite tune against all of those hateful, ignorant comments people make following online stories.

     Yes, they have free speech.

     They are free to go start their own newspaper.
