Whenever we decided that it's okay for fascists to be fascists and run our government and our news networks and that the "marketplace of ideas" would sort it out ... that was the end.

We need lots of freedom. Lots of room for different views.

But there are certain views that are just plain evil and if we can't agree that we're against that ... well, we don't stand a chance.
