You put feelings before freedoms. Ban guns, speech, flags. Anything that offends you, ban it. The 1st Amendment protects all speech, civil and offensive. By recognizing freedom of expression, we are protected from those in power who would seek to silent dissent and exploit us. Cordoning off certain words and concepts and outlawing them, is the camels nose under the tent. Which is exactly what you're doing - usurping the protections of the 1st Amendment. I don't use the N-word because I find it disparaging, but I defend the right to say it. This is where principles are lost on Liberals like you. You simply don't understand why Conservatives and Libertarians fight for principles, not feelings. The GREATER GOOD is best served not by some nanny twit hen-pecking us to death and refereeing our conversation all day. NO! It's best served by free, open, colorful, and in some cases, hurtful discourse. Freedom is messy. There is no perfect. Social engineers like you seek to impose a new order where a few wise men dictate what can be said, what can't be said. What words can be used, and what words can't be used. You have no fucking idea how dangerous this is, and how quickly that slope will be perverted towards totalitarian ends. There's already talk on the Left towards throwing 'climate skeptics' in prison. Fascism ring a bell?????? Remember GW Bush? We were told if we wern't for Bush and every piece of his illegal national spying and citizen-stripping legislation, we were with the terrorists. Now you pansyass fucks are playing the exact same game, except with different flagged words. Instead of wars and illegal spying, its anything to do with race, racism, and gender. Anyway, you're all a bunch of dick swallowing fascists. I get your point, but you're an intellectual child, much like the entire Left (and mainstream Right) are. You don't believe in freedom, have no appreciation for it, and if you could have your way, would tell half the world how to live, eat, breathe, drink, so your 'feelings' and those around, don't get hurt. Ya, we need a big mommy dictator to police us so nobody gets hurt feelings.
