Subject: RE: BS: Seeger Smothers Party- Left=right?
No, thank you for making my point!!

Just remember - your culture is but one of many sharing the earth. I'm don't want to force anyone to do anything. Changing the culture means doing things a bit differently.

While you won't admit it, the "withholding" of air time, stage time and tolerance is NOT the issue that you are attempting to paint. Once again, you refuse to acknowledge that you are advocating censorship.   

Free speech is not sharing an opportunity, it is having an opportunity to share.   This forum is a perfect example. You do not have to make an addedum to your post to add an alternate point of view - but I have the opportunity to do so. The "stages" that you feel are being witheld have historically been withheld from people like Pete Seeger.   I will fight any attempt to censor people like Pete, and you are trying to censor him.

Shame on you Conrad. Play fair, or don't play at all. You are sounding like a spoiled child who wants to change the rules of the game so that you can score points.   The playing field should be level, and it is, so long as people like you do not attempt to restrict the freedom of speech. Your spin doctoring won't work.
