Free speech is valuable. It’s dangerous to set the precedent that it’s okay to censor speech as long as you side with the censor and against the position being silenced.
A New Jersey school district has suspended a teacher after yearbook photos of two high school students were altered to remove President Donald Trump’s name on their clothing. Wall Township School Superintendent Cheryl Dyer told News 12 New Jersey on Monday the yearbook’s adviser was suspended while an investigation is underway. Further details about the suspension and the investigation were not disclosed, and Dyer did not immediately respond Monday to an email from The Associated Press seeking further commment. —AP

I’m 100% for free speech as long as it is ANTI God Emperor Trump.
Censorship is never a good thing. In fact, free speech can only really work when we defend that speech we find ‘icky.’ (Technical term there!)
Dennis, I vote you strike Margaret’s comment because I don’t like it.
Michael Sims Your comment would make sense if my Facebook page were a democracy.
Yes. This is simply not a good thing. This isn’t an “our team/your team” issue.
