Now I don't want to cause any shit storms by creating this thread, but I think some Americans take the First Amendment a little to far. I understand you have Freedom of Speech, but it doesn't mean you can say/do anything that you like.
One of the reasons I bring this up is because Dr. Laura said the N Word on her Radio Show(don't know all the details) then she went on Larry King and said she was only excersing her First Amendment.
Now I'm Canadian, so I might just be talking out of my a$$ here and if you like you can tell me I'm totally off base here. This is just something I thought of this morning.
If people get scrutized for saying something like Dr Laura did, or sometime even worst, they'll just use the line, I'm American, I have my Freedom of Speech.
I'm not pointing any fingers here, I just wanted to start a topic about my thoughts and see what other people think.
Like I said though, I might be totally wrong, and I apologize if you believe this thread doesn't make any sense or it's stupid :lol:
Thoughts?
