    Censored!

    I guess I don't understand what this thread is about. It's called "Should Some Speech/Literature be Censored?" but it's really about should stores be allowed to chose that they sell?

    Censored!

    Of course not. That is not a 1st Amendment question. This thread is about "Should Some Speech/Literature be Censored" and THAT is a 1st amendment question.

    Censored!

    when it comes to free speech it is all about anything goes, no matter if you don't like what you hear. Of course when they wrote the Bill of Rights they didn't have in mind protecting book topics like paedophile, but neither did they imagine machine guns in every house either... So I think...

    Censored!

    and you will go to jail if you kill yourself.... and maybe I'm not in the "the know" but didn't the supreme court say that corporations are now citizens... so wouldn't then corporations be protected by the 1st then going by that logic?

    Shipping my Aero NYPD back to Scotland for a jacket mod... one question...

    is it a good idea to write on the package what's inside... seems like a nice calling card for a parcel worker looking for new jacket.

    It would be across the back and big so it would be easy to spot. I'd guess some guy was under the house doing work and it got hot. He took it off and forgot it was down there. I find stuff all the time under houses.... mostly just tools that guys forgot or lost.
