This speech is from a debate at Hart House, University of Toronto. Christopher Hitchens’ speech is in favor of decriminalizing hate speech, and why that free speech must include hate speech. The debate (and lecture by Hitchens), which included members from Canada’s government, was a bill, then in discussions, regarding the decriminalization of hate speech, insofar as it is protected speech irrespective of its reprehensibility.

Themeaning of life is problem solving! This is how they control the people on the slave colonies. They solve the basic problems of food, clothing & shelter by providing you with jobs. Every two weeks they pay you in debt notes & within ten days you have given it all back. You don’t even know it’s not real money & that the nations are all bankrupt & under bankruptcy everything is prepaid. You are so brainwashed you can’t believe it, you deny it & you continue to go along with the corporate central bank tax scam. That leaves you free to solve more pressing problems like pizza or burgers, wine or beer, window or aisle, smoking or non, I love Lucy or American Idol Worship. You work all day in a corporate sweat shop. You pay taxes to the corporation of [your country name] then you watch Fake news scare you to death with war, murder, rape & corruption. You watch some sitcom Friends lie & cheat on each other for a laugh then you finish off the evening by witnessing some Criminal Minds plot & commit murder When they present any problem like 9/11 (Shortly before his untimely death, former British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook told the House of Commons that “Al Qaeda” is not really a terrorist group but a database of international mujaheddin & arms smugglers used by the CIA & Saudis to funnel guerrillas arms & money into Soviet-occupied Afghanistan Courtesy of World Affairs) they offer the solution, war on terror, loss of freedom. Housing bubble, economic collapse, bailout tax theft …

Charity tea party turns sour for Putin – Famous Russian rocker Yuri Shevchuk asked the PM some uncomfortable questions at a tea party with artists and musicians….. Vladimir Putin visited St. Petersburg on the weekend (31st May, 2010) where he attended a charity literary-musical evening for children with cancer and leukemia, and met with its participants and organisers. In the course of the tea party an outspoken critic of Putin, rocker Yury Shevchuk, asked him some awkward questions. At first Putin asked the Russian rock legend what his name was, even though people who go to these events claim that political leaders receive a list of all the guests, their names and occupations — and the seating plan. After clarifying his name and occupation, Shevchuk started by saying that an aide to Putin had called him in the evening and advised him on what questions he could and could not ask. When Putin said such a thing could not happen, Shevchuk said the caller was a maverick. However, liberal economist Andrei Illarionov, who used to work as Putin’s adviser until 2005, wrote in his blog that before such events an aide of the president or prime minister always calls participants to discuss logistics and topics of conversation. Shevchuk then told Putin that he was concerned about freedom of the press, inequality of different social layers and the state’s attempts to cultivate an ostentatious patriotism. “We’ve done that before,” said the musician….. www.mn.ru Russian Prime …

[Part 1 of 4] Chilly winds, rain and drizzle did not stop approximately 5000+ supporters of the “Ladies in White” (Damas de Blanco) movement in Cuba from descending onto Bergenline Avenue today from the tri-State area in a show of solidarity with those brave women in Cuba who have risked it all to silently protest the imprisonment and inhumane treatment of political prisoners in Cuba. The “Ladies in White” (Damas de Blanco) is an opposition movement in Cuba consisting of wives and other female relatives of jailed dissidents. The women protest the unjust imprisonments by attending church each Sunday wearing white dresses and then silently walking through the streets of Cuba dressed in white clothing. The color white is chosen to symbolize peace. The movement received the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought from the European Parliament in 2005. Despite harrassment, beatings and detention, these brave women in Cuba continue to march each Sunday in silent protest… until the Castro regime releases every single political prisoner in Cuba. There is now an international effort to nominate the “Ladies in White” (Damas de Blanco) for the Nobel Peace prize, in recognition of their peaceful struggle. This march started on 59th Street and Bergenline Avenue, in West New York, New Jersey and continued south for 20 blocks, ending at the Jose Marti Memorial Park in Union City, where hundreds more were gathered and waiting to hear US Senator Bob Menendez (Democrat from New Jersey …

“Liberty—the freedom from unwarranted intrusion by government—is as easily lost through insistent nibbles by government officials who seek to do their jobs too well as by those whose purpose it is to oppress; the piranha can be as deadly as the shark.” —United States v. 4570, 873 F.2d 1240, 1246 (9th Cir. 1989) Let me first say I do not advocate an open border. I am all for border security and I respect agents who have the duty of securing our country. I also have a great deal of respect towards our Constitution and the notion of liberty that many of us understand and appreciate. Second, this did not take place at the border. Some might be unfamiliar with internal checkpoints like this one which are away from the port of entry and are governed by different laws. At our port of entry, I expect to be searched and have no problem with that. This checkpoint however, is located 42 km away from the border on Interstate 19 and people like myself have no choice but to go through it when we travel. The purpose of these types of internal immigration checkpoints is to determine citizenship and immigration status. [United States v. Martinez-Fuerte (1976)] Notice I respectfully told the agent I was a US Citizen. Again, this is an immigration checkpoint and not a crime control checkpoint. The Customs & Border Protections Field Manual states in section 18.6 (e): “provided the checkpoint is used for the purpose of determining citizenship of those who pass through it, and not for the …

There are plenty of people who truly believe that Obama’s socialist ideas are a wonderful thing for our country. I would submit that although they feel good from a symbolic perspective, the reality is far different from the sales pitch. The most wonderful idea our country ever came up with was the idea that our rights came from God, not government. The idea that liberty and freedom reigned supreme. The idea that you can do anything you want so long as you don’t hurt other people or their property.
