Mr. Pencil tries hard to make a Grateful Nation ashamed of the fact that we have a First Amendment, but Keyes should have stopped with his first paragraph: A free people should normally suppress such activities through private moral judgment and association. Pornographers should be shunned by all, and likewise Mr. Ted Rall should have been fired immediately by those with professional authority over him, or in contractual relations with him.I'd kinda go along with those sentiments, and even bring up tar and feathers and the ever-popular rotted fruit toss. But then Keyes makes the mistake of thinking Pencil Boy is capable of "subverting our national resolve" and goes on from there to advocate Lincolesque crackdowns to protect Decent Merkins. Well, hell. As long as we've got the tar and feathers out... |
