"We have not done anything to dismantle that institution and continue to tolerate the perveyors, such as Farakkhan, Jesse Jackson, etc."
I regretfully have to agree with you. I think we should put Jesse Jackson in jail just because of the things he says. Those things he says are dangerous! They should be outlawed, and people should only be allowed to speak things that you and I like!
You remark undescores that which is wrong with the state of our people today: even conservatives think in terms of gov't, politics, and Constitution. All of these are product of our values. In our society we always have debate, we had institutions such as church, do instance. When and who last time organized a protest against the hiring practices at major universities, where departments of English, Philosophy, and Sociology are almost entirely devoid of conservatives?
Where is the moral opposition of the prominent church leaders to perversions of Farakhan adn Jackson? (Some began to emerge and is becoming more vocal, but this is only recent)
In sum, you said, sarcastically, about forbidding free speech --- I did not. When you awake to the fact that there is life besides law, you'll understand better what I said.
