I do think it's ironic that you would accuse Campus Watch of attempting to stifle free speech. From my perspective, their opinions bring new light and fresh voices to the debate in the marketplace of ideas.

undeniably true, but the problem is the tipping point.

There is a great danger in this sort of thing and it can quickly turn nasty, depending on how quickly one approaches the tipping point. The problem is that you cannot locate the tipping point scientifically, which is why you just have to trust people when it comes to these sorts of things, it's a vision thing. I mean how the hell am supposed to feel about #43 for example. I may be an idiot for trusting him given the evidence, and in fact that’s what I am, but I prefer my idiocy to Saddams.
