So we DO have a right to not be offended? As I understand it, speaking to another FReeper here, we have a right to not be offended based upon the validity of our morals and standards.
It’s a hypothesis that I lean toward supporting. Is it what you are trying to say as well?

Well your statement is a bit convoluted and I’m not sure I understand exactly what you mean. If you mean “do we have the right to enact laws that are based upon our moral standards?” the answer is yes. All laws are based in someone’s idea of morality. It’s just that over the last 50 years the traditional ideas of public morality loosely based on Christian ethics have been kicked to the curb and replaced by the values of leftism. The left has won the culture wars and a combination of coarse libertine behavior and political correctness rules the land.
