Hate Speech’s Wide Brush
Priority News Exchange Program News Item (PNEP)

Quote:
TEMECULA, California, March 8, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Earlier this week, San Francisco's United States notorious Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in the matter of Good News Employees Association v. Hicks that municipal employers can completely censor the terms "natural family," "marriage" and "family values" as hate speech.

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all.
H. L. Mencken

I doubt they can ban the term "marriage" - even some of the gays want "marriage" (unlike many heterosexuals these days). But what the hell are "family values"? That's so vague it's impossible to define, although some would love to.
