Let me get this straight. You're up here defending the hairdresser Michael Rivero who sees a conspiracy in his own shadow...

Yes-er-ie Bob. You're a real piece of work.

Believe it or not, I would defend even you and your right to defend yourself from a public pile-on.  That's just what a sweet gal I am. :)

XXX's & OOO's!

I have posted this passage where relevant before, and it seems well enough to be relevant here:

Heterodoxy is a necessary ingredient of a free society...The danger, to those who hold freedom as the highest good, is not the ideas...espouse(d) but the power...aspire(d) to. Let them rant their heads off - that is their right, which we cannot afford to infringe - but let us keep from them the political means of depriving everybody else of the same right - Frank Chodorov.
