Actually-calls for censorship-calls to ban ethnic foods-renaming foods to fit a political agenda are alll examples of totalitarian - Orwellian think and are NOT in the tradition of the GOP as I have known the GOP.
Free Assembly and Freedom of speech still apply to Ithaca or is the whole town to be damned and purged?
