Although I don't agree with what has been posted by the OP, I think that taking down the thread, i.e. cancelling the ideas presented is not the best response.

In our society today there is a tendency to try to eliminate the distribution of views that are found to be "incorrect" or "offensive".

To me it makes more sense to present arguments that counter those views.

In my opinion, Just trying to cancel it is weak rebuttal.

Edit: I'd like to add that my view is that sometimes freedoms are not taken away from us but instead given up voluntarily.

Those who would give up essential Safety, to purchase a little temporary Liberty, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety
