Free speech is a safety valve. You shut it down and eventually the pressure builds up and the boiler explodes. Doesn’t anyone remember the lessons of 1776?

“I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.” — William S. Burroughs author of Junkie.

Kathy – It is happening here.
Exactly.
