How ever. In this black time in our American history, let us not be quick to condemn, judge or get outright nasty with those who do feel the need to express their beliefs or opinions on these lists. Freedom of speech is one of the many freedoms we as Americans have to enjoy. Stop and think a minute, maybe these lists are the only place that some people feel they can utilize their freedom of speech and feel comfortable doing so. Deleting them or banning them from a list just because you don't like what they have said or the hornets nest they may have stirred up is just plain childish. Have those of you that are list admits forgotten our freedom of speech? I myself am a list admit to several lists. Nothing sickens me more than a list admit who runs their list as if they were a member of the Nazi SS. Tuesday was a very horrible day in our history as Americans. It brought back many bad memories for many people from all walks of life. Some tragedies I can think of off hand that would come to mind would be Pearl Harbor, The Holocaust, The Munich Olympic games, The bombing of the USS Cole just to name a few. So remember your loved ones lost, those who have lost loved ones, family or friends. Most of all be compassionate towards your fellow man or woman. Lets pull together, give our support where we can. If your feeling angry, go donate some blood don't chastise your neighbor! Boot from your lists should you feel the need, it will only prove that you don't believe in our American freedoms that many take for granted. While myself and many of my armed service brothers and sisters fight to defend our freedoms. John tired of spending outrageous amounts on inkjet cartridges? Refill your inkjet cartridges for a fraction of the cost of a new cartridge without compromising quality.
