The culture war is a crapfest. The classical liberal view of free speech is worth watching, in the movie "The American President", you are provided a view of an ideal Democrat from Hollywood. It illustrates the stark difference with how the left views and treats the Constitution and free speech today. I completely dislike the desecration of our flag, but in the spirit of Voltaire - we cannot ban it. What we can do is not buy into or from any organization that supports those values - i.e. we use our pocketbooks just like the left is doing. There are a lot more of us - and we are not living in our parents basements - so we control a significant portion of the economy. I started by changing my online preferences - Google is no longer my search engine.
