No one enjoys being offended. And everyone at some time or another has offended someone else. Polite society suggests that we should avoid offending others with our speech or actions if at all possible, and that seems reasonable. But there are those who would require – no, insist – that we do not offend others.
Offense is often in the eye of the beholder or the ear of the hearer, and the problem is determining who is qualified to be the arbiter of offensive speech. There are lots of folks who can be offended over nothing. And why should someone else’s desire to not be offended supersede my desire to express my feelings? What if what I say is offensive but true?
The logical conundrum spins round and round, and yet that is what the purveyors of political correctness are promoting, and they are using the force of law to make sure that freedom of speech is stifled in the name of making sure no one is ever offended.

Freedom of speech, they don’t stop refugee Muslim from saying that they will kill all nonbelievers, that is a threat to American people and they should be arested
for a government to take their people down and take their freedom they must first instill fear and disarm them and divide them so get armed, get ready, UNITE!!!
F**k Muslims, kill them all.

This is asinine,he should be able to voice his opinion of how he feels about the INVASION of refugees,they destroy any country they invade,and that is a fact!
That’s nothing. They killed a Supreme Court Judge because he wanted to vote against immigrants flooding in this country. Was for the Constitution.
So wrong
This Is Down Right Stupid
