| 44. i'm not blaming hillary's campaign conduct on her race, gender, religion, or sexual orientation- |
|
i'm blaming it on the fact that she's being bitchy about a lot of things- and if obama were being bitchy about it, i'd say the same about him. but he's not. she is. as far as your business partner's attitude- as long as no actual laws were broken, then yes,it's "permissible" because people are entitled to their opinions. if he did it in a way that breaks the law, then no- it's not "permissible"- that's how free speech works in this country. you may not like or agree with everything someone says- but that has NO bearing on their RIGHT to voice their opinion. would you prefer that the 1st amendment be scrapped entirely, or just re-written to suit you?  |
