re:That's pretty sad stuff.....its okay for someone to die while exercising there right to free speech because they don't agree with you.

Climbing about on a bridge (a US symbol I might add) to hang a sign, he could have just as easily been planting a bomb.


Really? So we get to kill whomever we think has a bomb whether they do or don't. I guess the masks are dropping pretty quickly now.

Free speech does not include breaking laws.

I never knew hanging a sign on a bridge was such a huge law to break.

re:my list of 'ignores' grows longer

Oddly it's you that can't handle my free speech and refuses to now listen to me.


Free speech means you have a right to speak your mind without censor [within reason]. That does not mean I have to listen to it.

re:you want dead me and all the millions in this country who don't agree with you and your position on this war.

Hardly. Your position on the war has become somewhat academic We still agree on the goal or disarming Iraq (not the method), that goal is about to be accomplished.


How do you know what exactly was the position of the man who fell to his death? All he was doing was demonstrating in public what I have said on this board: I am opposed to this war; I do not see the justification. I suspect that man's position was not all that different. So why should I not assume that you would prefer that I was dead because I disagree with you.

Joe's position was not all that surprising.....he grew up in a society where there was little free speech.
