MessageThe right to speak "discriminatory words" is a fundamental right of any liberal democracy. Discrimination is not protected by our current free speech laws as NWPG claims, but the right to speak in favor of discrimination is and should be protected.

The tolerant majority of our society, of which PCP is a part, do not have the right to shutdown any form of speech we disagree with, no matter how outrageous or offensive that speech may be. Freedom of speech protections are needed not to protect popular speech, but to protect the unpopular views of the minority in society. We must come to the fight against discriminatory speech armed with words and arguments of our own. If we truly have the better arguments, we should have no reason to shutdown the debate.

Random quote: "Colonialism or imperialism, as the slave system of the West is called, is not something that is just confined to England or France or the United States. The interests in this country are in cahoots with the interests in France and the interests in Britain. It's one huge complex or combine, and it creates what's known not as the American power structure or the French power structure, but an international power structure. This international power structure is used to suppress the masses of dark-skinned people all over the world and exploit them of their natural resources." Malcolm X
