ok i just heard on the news that they are tring to pass a law to ban the use of the "n" word. (i hope we all know which word that is) I disagree with the use of the word but what has happened to the freedom of speech. one plus isn't that the word for the color Black is spanish. one of the congress said that even if in passed there is really no way to inforce the law. I guess he has a point there. if you say in in public they might hear it but thats about it.

What a slap in the face of free speech! Hasn't anyone heard the quote 'I disagree with what you have to say, but I'll give my life for your right to say it'? This is ridiculous! You can't ban words! Not in America. That's so unconstitutional it's not even funny. Even my usual eloquence fails me in the wake of such idiocy! And it's close to the Spanish word, but there's a one letter difference.

it is a mayjor in texas and he has banned it in his town and wants to make it federal. he says if its a law it will change the way people feel about it in their haerts. i am wondering what he has been smoking. laws dont change hearts.
