One of my favorite quotes (attributed to Votaire) is “While I disagree with what you say, I will defend to the death your right to say it.”

The modern trend seems to be “I believe in free speech as long as it agrees with my position.”

No such right exists.

But the PC crowd has convinced millions it does with no regard to the actual cost...
