This captures my sentiments exactly. He was very provocative and my sense was
people were falling into a trap by taking him on. I don't mind repartee as long
as it is civilized. I hit the delete button quite often so actually missed the
fireworks!! For free speech advocates, I must confess I don't share the view
that anyone has the right to say whatever they want, when they want. Your laws
don't permit that and neither do ours (Canada). We are probably even tougher
than your country because we believe there are some things which transcend free
speech, e.g., child pornagraphy. Please don't start a thread on free speech!!
