Of Chicken Sandwiches and Free Speech

Mike Malloy purveys his own type of hate:





I responded via email with this: 

 Wow. Dude, I caught your rant regarding Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day. Just ....wow. You really have no clue what this is about, do you? You really don't understand the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. This wasn't about chicken sandwiches. It wasn't about Gay Marriage. It was about the Right, the UNALIENABLE Right of individuals to speak their minds, especially those who hold views others disagree with. You are not the arbiter of right and wrong. There is no such thing as "hate speech" that needs to be banned. There is only "speech". As reprehensible a human being as you appear to be from the clip I just heard (I've never heard such a hate-filled diatribe from the likes of Rush Limbaugh, by the way), I am in favor of your Right to say the hateful things you said; things far worse than anything said by the owner of Chick-Fil-A. Have you even bothered to read his quote? Have you even bothered to research the company? Now all that said, the publicity given to Chick-Fil-A by all the ensuing hoo-ha by you and those who vilified Dan Cathy for his beliefs was the best thing to happen to the chain. Record sales, got the name out there for people who might now know about it. You have shown that God works in mysterious ways. That's awesome. 


 I have to add one more thing: The Muslim Brotherhood and radical Muslims in general advocate the killing of Gays, something Dan Cathy did not do, nor would he do. Why do you not rant about them? Could it be that you know radical Muslims kill those with whom they disagree? 


 I wish you Peace and send my sincerest regards,

This is the problem:  The Left and especially the Left Wing talkers have such blinders on that they are incapable of seeing anything other than what they consider "objectionable" from those of us on the Right.  I believe we on the Right are intellectually honest about wrongdoing on our side.  That is, if we bitch about what someone on the Left is doing, we tend to bitch about it from people on our own side.  The Left seems to have no such ability.  Obama was against Gay Marriage until he was before it.  I saw no outrage.  Obama was going to close GITMO and end wars.  That has not happened and I see no GITMO protests and no "War for Oil" protests.


More Leftist hypocrisy.  They want to remove the mote from our eye while ignoring the log in their own.

I also want to clear up any misunderstanding.  While the First Amendment only applies to the Federal Government (your state Constitution will prevail on this), I believe the "War on Chicken" started in the White House.  It is no coincidence that Rahm was the first out of the box, so I believe this is a Federal issue.  In addition, this is enabled by Federal "hate crime" legislation at the Federal Level.  Attempting to codify "hate" in favor of the protected classes is anathema to Liberty.

Now, if the description of my email were true, I suspect he would have read it on the air and made fun of it.  But I am pretty certain he or his staff opened the email, knew it was all true and realized they couldn't possibly read it on the air because of the fundamental truths contained.  Cowards.  Completely unable and unwilling to even consider another point of view.
