An excellent point that no doubt will fall on some deaf ears.

Typical of the left is the desire to claim bigotry and racist---just to attempt to stifle free speech and opinion.


Certain people on this thread have attempted it for even more sinister reasons, or so I think.


Imagine this: A person that posts at FR who is actually a person looking to shut FR down---if they claim racism enough, that could very possible give others the reason, evenwithout any merit, to do so.

This would be awful by virtue of not only being a lie---but also by squelching freedom of speech.


In a larger, NATIONAL sense, if someone were too intimidated to report a 'odd' happening(s) for fear of being labelled as such--we might end up with another 9/11.


And THAT is frightening........

That is what the left and political correctness are doing to this great Country. They are infringing on our freedom to speak out; attempting to label it 'hate" speech. Since when is speaking the truth "hate" speech?

When the truth is something that is threatening to a particular ideology or agenda, that's when.
