I feel it necessary to observe that "supporting free speech when it supported his regime" is hardly free speech!

And you apparently have just proven my points with snarky and argumentative posts...as you have done throughout the thread.....LOL...we all see it.....for what it is. It's readily apparent...many posters argue simply for the "thrill" of arguing...That's common ground WE all can agree on. ;-)

Hey, either keep track of what you say or don't lie, I don't know what which one you are doing but if you are going to claim I'm not reading post, and saying you didn't say something, I will go back and find your quote of you saying such a thing.

I know this is clearly a red herring tactic.

I do not debate to win, but to understand, thus I don't say contradicting statements, you might try that in future discussions.

People here have suggested over and over that to achieve common ground we must stop criticizing and insulting people. How will this cause common ground.. I see this as just another attempt to say please stop it...

I'm insulted and offended that you think I would fall for such a trick.. so what are you going to do about that?
