wow all the free speech people went missing oh wow, you see it's stupidity like that why there are people dedicated to making sure liberals never take full control of the country. Let me help you, we feel she has the right to say what ever she wants, no one is attempting to stop her from speaking. People are looking for some consistency as it pertains to consequences for bringing politics into the discussion. Now if you want to see what an attempt to subdue free speech looks like, turn your attention to UC Berkeley. --- Those who act like sheep, will be eaten by wolves http://i.imgur.com/n1L1yBu.jpg ...

GeneralZhao posted...wow all the free speech people went missing This notion that everyone deserves whatever platform they want is dumb. Why does Berkeley HAVE to let anyone speak? They can choose who speaks there. The person they are choosing not to have speak there isn't losing free speech. You're trying to change what free speech means. Speech isn't being taken away just because someone can't have an organized event at Berkeley. That goes for anyone. And what consistency? If ESPN wants to fire her they can. But it's their choice. They can choose what to do and if their brand needs to be protected. Do you want laws to be passed to force that consistency? Just as Berkeley can choose to cancel a speaker if they feel it would cause issues with their students. Your idea that protesters should just shut up and let them speak kind of goes against your stance on free speech no? Now when it comes to violence I agree. Violence should never be used. It's still not removing free speech but it's the wrong way to get your point across. --- Dallas Cowboys: 1 - 0 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Curt Schilling got fired by ESPN for having the outrageous opinion that people with male genitalia should use the men's room. Schilling was warned repeatedly to stop trolling about politics on Twitter before he was fired. This is the first time Jemele has been reprimanded for something similar. The last major controversy she got into was in 2008, and that was sports related. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

"Sports related." She said rooting for the Celtics was like supporting Hitler. Yes. "rooting for the Celtics is like saying Hitler was a victim. It’s like hoping Gorbachev would get to the blinking red button before Reagan." She was equating it to being a traitor, or rooting for pure evil, and it was clearly tongue in cheek, related to being a fan of a sports team, and not political at all. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

That Trump is a white supremacist, obviously.

nah, there's also the: Central Park Five thing, questioning that one judge of Mexican descent's ability to due their duty based on their race, comments about Mexican immigrants, re-tweets false info from a white supremacist account, and so on.
and these are recent examples. maybe they don't prove that he's a white supremacist, but they definitely don't help his image --- b-bb-box ... Copied to Clipboard!

There absolutely are consequences to free speech; thing is the majority of America has to disagree with you in order for there to be consequences. Being a nazi? Yeah you're probably going to get fired for that one. Calling the president something that he isn't? Nah your job is probably pretty secure. All the people saying "now you know how we feel when liberals come at us" no not really, because nothing will happen to the person who made this comment.
