The left talks a good game about rights and freedoms and all that, but the truth is, the more power people on the left get, the more totalitarian they become.
In America, they are strongest in the universities, and sure enough, it's within many universities that you find speech codes; denials of tenure and funding based on political alignment or positions; the suppression of certain kinds of ideological expression; open attacks on conservatives and Jews; and the tacit encouragement or official endorsement of left-wing (and sometimes violent, Jihadist, anti-Semitic, or simply vile) ideological and artistic expressions.

Glad to hear that!!
Hey, Christoper, I just checked out your website and I really like it. and I bookmarked it.
