Everyone has an opinion, and the guy screaming for censorship may be the next guy to have his ideas cut off.

Censorship of ideas or images or words is wrong.

The Chinese censorship mechanism is not just looking for subversive elements. It is also looking at the ideas of 'moral rightness' in society. For example, there are controls on things like pornography, or other elements that the state deems as unpalatable for the population.

The immigration laws should not be used as instruments of censorship. The State Department should not be deciding which ideas Americans hear and which they do not.

For books are not absolutely dead things, but do contain a potency of life in them to be as active as that soul was whose progeny they are; nay, they do preserve as in a vial the purest efficacy and extraction of that living intellect that bred them.

The National League asked each local league to do something to commemorate September 11. We wanted something endorsing the ideas of community service, communication and volunteerism.
