I've been thinking...

How is it that we've gotten to the point where no one can express their opinions without someone jumping down their throat? Have we become that flippant sensitive that the slightest intellection expression will warp someone to the point of lashing out? I've been experiencing this for some time now, with people, message boards, etc., and I just have one question: can't I just say what the hell I want to say?

Is it really that hard? Whatever happened to: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it?"

Oh, well. Maybe one of these days people will get it. Just better enjoy it now before it gets worse.
