nefarious_plot said:She is exercising here right as an American, Her freedom. Those supporting this war claim its for freedom, yet they consistantly show they want to take freedom away from AMERICAN's.
How? By doing exactly what she is doing? Expressing their feelings about a situation?
Does anyone else see the circular logic here?
Sheehan flexes her right to speak her mind.
People who disagree, exercise their right and respond to her.
Other people get angry at the repondents for exercising their rights and make accusations toward those who disagree of wanting to take away her rights.
So the people who disagree with Sheehan should have their rights violated by being accused of practising facsist principles?
Should the people who make such accusations not express their view about the people who disagree with Sheehan wanting to deprive her of her rights?
This can go on forever...
Once the focus is veered away from the subject at hand, e.g. is Sheehan right or wrong, and has shifted to something we already know the answer to - we all are protected by freedom of speech - it's evident that analytical debate has exhausted itself and frustration has become the fuel for debate.
