        @SamHarrisOrg @PENamerican At least it has weeded out the fake/weak "freedom of speech" advocates. Don't need them speaking there anyway.

        @SamHarrisOrg @PENamerican Agree. Rushdie's comment at the end is on the money. Free speech first. THEN debate its content.

        @samharrisorg @penamerican Why? Being critical of content is also a right, like freedom from harm/death when expressing a political opinion.

        @axe_grrl And @samharrisorg's opinion was that their opinions were something that they should be ashamed of. So I guess it all balances out.
