I couldn't have said this better myself. If my mailbox keeps getting fillled with drivel like this thread I will have to unsubscribe after being a listmember since 1994. Let's get the list back to the discussion of Vanagons. It's a mistake to think that anyone but the government is in the business of guaranteeing anyone's free speech rights--your employers isn't, and this list isn't. -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com] On Behalf Of Steve Schwenk Sent: Monday, July 02, 2001 1:29 AM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Re: rights
The outrage in the comment below is genuine and sincere...and it illustrates why racist jokes are even more inappropriate than pornography in a forum like this. The Internet is big enough to accommodate hate speech for those who want/need it. The vanagon list is not. Sorry, i thought this whole mess was dead, but then the bigot starts joking about his unbelievably offensive comments. It is too much to ask that others just sit here and accept it as OK. It can't possibly be ok in any civil forum. Steve Schwenk wrote: > > YOU RACIST PIG. NOW YOU JOKE ABOUT IT. DIE PIG. > |
