Oh man, Chris, I couldn't stomach doing that, you're a braver man than I.

One of the fundamental problems in that thread is the initial misunderstanding about which of my personas was speaking. It later was used as debating leverage, and Gary and a few supporters never let go of that, and tried to build a smokescreen around the notion that I was infringing on their freedom of speech.

That's unfortunate, because I have no desire at all to suppress that kind of speech. Banning it here won't make it disappear from the rest of the world, and the use of the foul and reprehensible tactic of accusing your opponent of a Constitution-class felony gives me the repeated opportunity to pound it flat.

I relish this fight. Bring it on! If I accomplish nothing else in this life, I would be content to have held the line on freedom of speech. I will never surrender.
