Celebrate Freedom of Speech Week Oct 16-22
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."


Freedom of Speech Week was created by The Media Institute and launched in 2005 in partnership with the National Association of Broadcasters Education Foundation. So basically it was started to avoid TV censorship. In any case, I fully support the cause and hope you will to. Now the current U.S. Administration and the FCC aren't quite on board. But no one said freedom fighting was easy.

Our friends at RIAA are a sponsoring member. They want to continue selling records with naughtylinks words. Just don't share those tunes with your friends without the recording labels getting their cut.
