There's no "hate speech" exception to the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. GoDaddy here, however, is probably free to deny service but not free to take their US TLD away from them. There is probably an interesting di

We'll end it here. You continue to misrepresent the memo's points time and time again. You either 1) did not read it or 2) have some seriously loaded biases. Probably erring on the side of 2). No one has claimed that the women who

We're getting to the heart of the matter here. Presumably, you are upset about the implication that the mind is not a blank slate. So, are you upset because this makes you uncomfortable about biological predispositions, particularly th
