I think the older I get the more openly verbal ( as my mom would call it) I will become. More so to let a few people know what dil*** they are.

I say what I wish. If someone has a problem with it, they say so. That is their right to do so.

Free speech can be judged. Being judged has consequences. I don't know what's so hard to understand about this.

If you make a general racist, sexist or discriminatory remark, you won't get arrested or prosecuted. That's freedom of speech. Freedom of speech also means that if you make a racist, sexist or discriminatory remark I can criticize you for that. Freedom of speech is not a one way street I think that's what alot of people fundamentally don't understand.

Political correctness is a form of freedom of speech, and so is criticizing it.
