Get a life!! Times have changed and if you don't realize that we must adapt, we'll soon be living in a muslim state where very few have any rights. Check out the states that have become muslim controlled,
Stoning to death of the woman for adultery, with the man receiving lots less. You think free speech is threatened, wait till they take you away and with no US Constitution to help you. Our system is not perfect and challenging the status quo is healthy. However what I see in some of the postings makes me wonder what planet I am on.
