The problem for Business is that they could be sued if someone is offended by what any employee views. If the company is sued for discrimination and any employee has viewed un-PC sites that will be used as evidence of wrong doing.

I like what John Lithgow as "Dick" on "Third Rock" had to say:

"Why can't we all just not get along?"

He has truly made insensitivity respectable again.

Barney Bump!!!........isn't it sad how words like hate, diversity, tolerance, etc should still mean essentially the same things they always did but their usage normally indicates something more far reaching. Nowadays when I hear those words my PC hackles usually stand on end.

Wanting to tear down others into whipping boys to build themselves up on stolen social standing is the act of scoundrels and thieves.

Islam is one of the world's major religions. It has good people and bad. It has insightful and questionable theology both. Much the same can be said about any other major religion in the world including Christianity.

Nobody likes terrorists but themselves. Just for playing the old old game of using religion to justify murdering and destroying property is not justification for throwing all Muslims in the same grouping with them.

AS for homosexuals, they are consenting adults doing what they do in the privacy of their bedrooms. I have read the house of cards that is the hate based innuendo and slanted factoids that is contended to be "the great homosexual conspiracy and realize where I have seen similar efforts before; the Nazi claim Jews were stealing the reason out of good Christian's minds, engaged in conspiracies in the financial and art worlds, and they should be rubbed out for the good of humanity.

Homosexuality is judged after extensive and painstaking work to be a variation of normal human sexuality, with gays and lesbians being well balanced and contributing members of society. Their sexuality doesn't warp their worth as citizens; nor do they "recruit."

I know that as a kid in high school who looked young form my age, and was kept from dating my a deep shyness, it was a large kid slamming me unfairly with slams I was a "f*gg*t."

I experienced the indifferences of peers and school officials and teachers to my plight. They simply did not want to get involve in protecting me against this gut-wrenching ordeal of abuse by a bully.

I had to take care of it myself, which I did after realizing I was alone at this new school I had attended only some months after moving out to the West Coast.

The memories still haunt me, creating anger that can burn fierce to this day, decades later.

What I know now beyond any doubt is that homophobic people who victimize their peers because of a deep desire to belittle to puff themselves up have my deepest distain.

In recent years, I have learned to be on guard against their hate speech, and to hate them for their expressions of hate. I feel sorry for them, and locally will without hesitation help turn the city ordinance against hate crimes against gays and lesbians against them to help them realize their criminal and hateful behavior.

If anyone had ever wanted me to buy the flawed premise that homosexuals are "evil," they should have protected me against being a target of opportunity, using the broad brush of stigmatizing homosexuals against anyone not because of facts, but because it was a convenient tool to blast a target they perceived as vulnerable.

At the very least, the anti-gay people need to police and clean their own house before they set forth to attack someone else's.

I see a very interesting trend beginning. First, the cost of setting yourself up in an independant business has never been lower. Second, more and more people are deciding to strike out for themselves and start independant businesses rather than work for a corporation. Third, laws, regulations and the threat of lawsuits is slowly strangling the entire work environment for the average corporation. We have reached a point were people are afraid to say "Good morning" to each other for fear of becoming entangled in a sexual harassment lawsuit.

The sum total of these trends do not spell good times for the future of Corporate America. As the best and the brightest increasingly strike out on their own, these corporations will find themselves hamstrung by lawsuits and regulations at the same time that they experience a loss of their best employees.

As a real world example, I know that I will never buy a rental property, because the laws as they currently exist give me almost no rights as a landlord, and they leave me open to massive losses simply for complying with the laws. Since the government wants to tell me who I can rent to, let the government provide all of the rental housing. The same thing for companies, I figured out long ago that I would never grow my company past one person, why should I? So that I can spend all of my time complying with miles of bureaucratic red tape?

From what I can see the trends are becoming obvious. The future belongs to the small enterprise. The overhead for maintaining a large corporation in the current regulatory and legal environment is becoming prohibitive, and will eventually lead to the failure of many firms. The ones who survive will survive mostly because of their lobbying skills rather than their business skills. Meanwhile the small enterprises that can operate mostly under the radar of the government will survive and prosper. This is natural result of all of this government meddling.

The sites you posted seem to tilt a little to the right, just like DU, CNN or Salon tilt to the left.

A couple of thoughts,
1 spellcheck, it's our friend, learn it, live it, love it.
2 GOSH they know how to swear and everything, soooo sophisticated.
3 Their logic and reasoning is like nothing I've ever seen, It reminds of of the old firing line.< /sarcasm>

These aren't hate sites;

these are "hate the creeps that killed 3000 of your fellow citizens" sites.
