Armyman25 posted:I'm so glad you hate the 1st Amendment. Well the whole thing about Salamand Rushdie is a bit more nuanced that "all muslims want to kill and enslave others". Personally, I feel people have a right to say horrible, bigoted, racist things but they shouldn't really feel shocked or upset when most people call them out on it.

Armyman25 posted:There is a difference between being called out on it and having your message literally defaced. I'm going to repost something of mine from the old thread: Talking about free speech, the Stop $30 Billion to Israel group has been having problems with keeping billboards up. It's a multi-religous and multi-racial group run by a former member of AIPAC who quit after realizing how terrible the situation is and how a lot of modern Israeli history is exaggerated and even made up (read up about the New Historians for more info on that). First in 2009 they tried to run 10 of the billboard below in New Mexico for 8 weeks with a contract with Lamar Outdoor Advertising.  A little more than two weeks later, Lamar was "pressured" to take them down.  Then just a few weeks ago, they raised enough money to run 23 billboards in Los Angeles for four weeks with CBS Outdoor Advertising.  After getting them up, the group sent a petition to thank CBS Outdoors for putting them up, so a week later CBS Outdoors took them down because "your organization has used the ‘CBS Outdoor’ name without permission"  It's hard to get anything done. Here's the Mondowiess articles about the billboards. http://mondoweiss.net/2009/04/man-who-says-he-is-former-aipac-member-puts-up-billboards-decrying-gaza-as-monstrous-inhumanity.html http://mondoweiss.net/2009/04/billboards-criticizing-us-aid-to-israel-taken-down-underpressure.html http://mondoweiss.net/2012/06/stop-30-billion-campaign-plasters-los-angeles-with-billboards.html http://mondoweiss.net/2012/06/cbs-pulls-down-billboards-calling-for-end-to-us-aid-to-israel.html Also, meanwhile this ad got OK'd.  http://gothamist.com/2010/08/10/mta_approves_anti-mosque_ad_with_pl.php In conclusion, where legitimate messages are removed and racist and discriminatory scrawls by a woman who advocates that the Tea Party should join with the fascist English Defence League are allowed and kept, there's little hope.

USS Forrestal on fire in 1967 after a Zuni rocket misfired. This is the huge fire that McCain is sometimes blamed for. (it wasn't his fault)  USS Enterprise, which is currently on its' final cruise in the Persian Gulf, on fire in 1969 after a Zuni rocket misfired.  In short: oops.

 Carson Robinson was quite possibly the first country musician to sell a million records. That said, since he was popular in the 1940s and 1950s he produced some impressively cringeworthy songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJ0emX5RgZQ (for what little it's worth, technically that song was by Bob Miller and only covered by Robinson. "Their alibi for fighting is to save their face, for ancestors waiting in Celestial space. We'll kick their precious face, down to the other place We've gotta slap the dirty little Jap."

 That's Grindadráp, which is a national pastime our cousins the Faroese engage in. Used to be they prioritized giving the meat from it to people what would need more nutrition, kids, pregnant women, old people and whatnot, but nowadays because the industrial nations have filled the ocean with poison it's dangerous to eat a lot of meat. Heavy metal poisoning and whatnot. I thought it would be trans shaming, but no, it was religious bigotry. But hey, at least it ended well and all involved learned an important lesson.
