Imus called these girls a name, and people are standing up to defend them.

Of course I would defend a friend, but I WOULD NOT ask the board to fucking ban him. That's the difference here. Those dumb little sluts and their ignorant cross-toting reverend flunkies have all the right in the world to bitch and moan about being offended. BUTTTTTTTT - I consider it an attack against free speech for them to work aggressively to rid him of the airways. That's their way of saying that he has no right to HIS FREE SPEECH.

To paraphrase Anthony of O&A, if we all agreed, if we all spoke in an unoffensive manner, there'd be no point to the First Amendment. It wouldn't be necessary. However, we recognize that we will not always agree and we should, therefore, have legally protected free speech.

Why would I think that a handful of pornographers would understand the necessity of free speech?
