Enough with this Authoritarian 'PC' crap of yours!
I asked:
Q: When you buy a ticket to --- say --- a music concert... is there any express language printed on you ticket saying that the performer will never say anything political or social in nature?
You seem to have replied that, no, there ISN'T.
I also asked:
Q: Is there even an *implied* contract that the performer will never speak but when they are singing... that they have abrogated their Constitutional rights to Free Speech because of the ticket you purchased?
You replied with "A singer may advertise her wares and through those advertisements encourage people to buy tickets for those wares, and yet instead of giving them the goods for which they have paid you give them a political speech...."
SO, YOU FREELY CONCEDE THAT --- IF A PERFORMER ACTUALLY PERFORMS THEIR ACT ON STAGE (FOR WHICH YOU PURCHASED TICKETS) --- then they have satisfied all that they contracted to do!
And, that (as long as they perform as promised... sing, dance, tell jokes, whatever it is that they normally do), then IN NO WAY HAVE THEY SURENDERED THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS TO FREE SPEECH.
THEY CERTAINLY HAVE THE RIGHT TO EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS UPON ANY TOPIC... THE SAME AS ANY OTHER CITIZEN DOES! (You are free, as always, to get up and leave... to change the channel, whatever, if you don't like what you are hearing!)
I finally asked:
Q: When you watch a sitcom on TV, is there any contract between you and the producers stating that they will never have any of their characters say anything that you disagree with?
No, there isn't, so get off this PC kick of yours.
You need to stop thinking that the world has to agree with you on every particular.
YOU SEEM TO WANT TO PASS AUTHORITARIAN LAWS THAT WILL MUZZLE ANYONE WHO EVER TRIES TO SAY ANYTHING WITH WHICH YOU DISAGREE.
THAT IS ABOUT THE MOST ANTI-LIBERTARIAN THING YOU COULD EXPOUSE!
YOU NEED TO GET OFF THIS TOTALITARIAN KICK OF YOURS, JOHANNES! YOU MIGHT HAVE BEEN COMFORTABLE IN A COUNTRY WHERE JACK-BOOTED POLICE AGENTS BURST DOWN DOORS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT TO TAKE AWAY PEOPLE WHO EXERCISE THEIR RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH (AS LONG AS IT'S NOT YOUR DOOR THAT'S GETTING KICKED IN, I GUESS), BUT I WOULD NEVER WANT SUCH A COUNTRY. |
