Wow,

What an amazing demonstration of free speech. I applaud ALL of you for =
voicing your feelings. Remember folks, free speech means just that- even =
the bigots, the small-minded, or the just plain ignorant get to speak up =
too.

Since I logged on late last night, I got to read the whole thing as a =
flow of events, and it's just marvelous. Why, I wonder, do we not hear =
the open minded shedding light on the ignorant EVERY day? Why do we not =
see the open minded shaming the ignorant daily by not tolerating their =
bigotry and hatred? I am not saying to shut down their speech- but call =
them on it- just as you've been doing here.

Call the small minded on their ignorance. Don't let another day go by in =
which you hear a slanderous racial or sexual (or political) remark... =
and fail to respond. If you want to change the world- make it a more =
hospitable place for ALL- then we have to speak louder than they do.

You've done that here. Keep it up. Every day. If you change a single =
mind, who knows? You may just change the world.
