Yes you do.

Their reaction to your words is not your responsibility, it's theirs. They have the responsibilty to not react to words with force. Clearly we are experiencing desperate times in Soviet Amerika.

Welcome to Amerika, where you have the right to say anything you want....

....as long as it is non-offensive and approved by the State. And preferably voiced from a well defined Free Speech Zone.










Yeah. It's here NOW. The beginning of the end of freedom, if anyone cares.

Anyone? Anyone???






We are SO screwed. :(

People are torn between having the Right to say what they want, and want to have the Right to not be offended by what is heard. No one forces a person to listen.

The very basis of Free Speech is not to protect what people agree with when heard, but the Right to say what others will not agree with.

Extend the scope of what is being banned. ALL offensive words are now being banned, period. Go to school with an NRA t-shirt, grounds for arrest, eat a pizza into the shape of a gun, arrest, even the very word "Bossy" is considered offensive. There is something that will offend damn near every single person on the planet. So whats their solution, protect the Right to say the thing that is Unpopular, or just ban everything that can possibly be said?

Once Free Speech and Privacy are both gone, people will no longer have the ability to discuss the problems, or come up with solutions to the problems.

Heres another Offensive Word: Stupidiots.

So true... and so tragic that it is rapidly becoming a forgotten truth.

Personally, I'd call that an Admission of Guilt. Also protected by Free Speech.

May I joke about a bomb being found?

Or are bomb jokes just entirely off the table?

WARNING! WARNING! Bomb joke follows!


A famous statistician would never travel by airplane, because he had studied air travel and estimated the probability of there being a bomb on any given flight was 1 in a million, and he was not prepared to accept these odds.

One day a colleague met him at a conference far from home. "How did you get here, by train?"
"No, I flew"

"What about your the possibiltiy of a bomb?"

"Well, I began thinking that if the odds of one bomb are 1:million, then the odds of TWO bombs are (1/1,000,000) x (1/1,000,000). This is a very, very small probability, which I can accept. So, now I bring my own bomb along!"
