    Default Freedom of Speech (gone too far???)

    Did anyone hear on the news today that a local business owner down in Paulding county has a sign outside his resturant that says "Is Michael Jackson not guilty b/c he is a NIGGER?"

    what do you think of that?

    I think he has the right to write whatever he wants on his board and his patrons should react accordingly. I personally would stray away from there and keep my family away from there to. I belive in letting an ass make an ass out of himself for all to see so he can pay for it.

    they show'd his menu from his bar and it had a hanging black guy w/ a klans man swing from it... i will say he didn't seem so dumb from the interview, he said, " maybe the sign will intise people to stand up for the things they believe in or the issues that are important to them" i was awful surprised that came out of his mouth. but none the less some of the things were quite offensive.

    I think it's crap, and hope that he doesn't live long enough to see next week. Later, QD.

    I believe he has every right to hang it outside, just as we have the right to burn his place to the ground tonight to protest

    I think he can say whatever he wants... as long as he's ready to deal with a lot of gun-toting angry people.

    The public will act accordingly,

    Freedom of speech is freedom of speech, even when you dont agree with what is being said.

    Thats the truth, The freedom of speech means you will deal with something that someone says that angers you to the core, But you deal with it because thats the right we have in this country

    He has every right to say what he wants as long as he's willing to take the backlash of his comments.

    This is what we all have to deal with. Idiots like that have the right to say that just like everyone has the right to call him an idiot for it.

    the beauty of free speech..u can say whatever u want....no matter how dumb it is.
    for example:

The world we live in now is less racist than before so get over yourself, I dont really think many people have enough passion to give a damn about being extremely racist anymore.
