..."We welcome the views of others. We seek a free flow of information across national boundaries and oceans, across iron curtains and stone walls. We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people"...
[from JFK remarks on the 20th Anniversary of the Voice of America; Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, February 26, 1962]
i find that most liberals when confronted with statements like that in person are receptive to civility. But over the internet they turn into gestapo. Most liberals are tough in words, but weak physically, so in person they will agree because they dont want their asses kicked, unless you run into a full blown extremist with pink hair and 5 vaginas
