7 Places They Should Ban Morons!
The age old question of smokers rights has been going on since before I was even born. While researching a subject for something completely unrelated to the subject of smokers rights at all, I came across this little gem.
http://www.sheerbalance.com/eco-living/7-places-they-should-ban-smoking/
Reading this article felt something like this:
I remember when I was a child my parents smoked in my house, A LOT! One day, whilst walking into the living room to enjoy an episode of Thunder Cats, I remember very politely asking my father if he could cut out the smoke so I could enjoy my show without his smoke upsetting my then delicate, nasal sensitivity. His reaction was something like this:
This exchange taught me something very valuable. Since my father owned the property I was living in he set the rules. If I didn’t like it, I could get the fuck out of the living room! Sensible man logic at it’s best.
For all of the sensible man logic, there is always a stupid woman who wants to ram her inconsequential opinion in there. Of course, it is always based on feelings rather than actual logical breakdown. This is exactly the kind of article Brett Blumenthal wrote in her smoking hit piece above. Do you think she uses the name Brett so men will take her more seriously, or were parents just dicks?
I decided I would go through Brett’s list of places she thinks people shouldn’t be able to smoke in and show her that her logic does not do her sex (of overly emotional, non-critical-thinking imbeciles) any credit.
1.The Beach:
Perceived Experience: You will get a healthy dose of the smell of salty, sea air as the warm breeze relaxes you and your toes play in the sand.
Reality: When people smoke at the beach, the beautiful ocean breeze wafts smoke instead. Further, many people (not all people, but many) discard their cigarette butts in the sand, creating a landfill of cigarette carcasses.
Good job, Brett! You managed somehow to find the smallest public beach on the planet where you can’t walk away from somebody who is smoking and not breathe the smoke. You should certainly be credited with such an awesome discovery. Below is a rendition of what the beach Brett goes to might look like:
Of course this is the type of beach most of us are used to.
Do you think she even tried to think it through?
2.Parks/Nature Preserves:
Perceived Experience: You leave the city to get away from the smog and pollution. You look forward to the beautiful fresh, clean air of the mountains and running streams.
Reality: Your hike through the wilderness is taken over by smoke instead of the smell of pine trees. Not only do you need more oxygen because of your hike and altitude, but now you need oxygen because of the smoke.
Are the parks you are going through on fire? That is the only way I can possibly envision you having to deal with cigarette smoke in a nature reserve, which is a place where people actually get LOST for days at time because many are so big. I am sure though, Brett, that you are the exception, and some how always manage to find the one smoker [that doesn't exist] who chains smokes as he runs through the same hills, valleys, and mountains you are visiting. I know I always open my lungs up for a hike with a camel!
3.Outdoor Cafes:
Perceived Experience: It is a beautiful day and instead of eating all cooped up inside, you dine al fresco, hoping to enjoy the warmth of the sun and a light, natural, non-air conditioned breeze.
Reality: Many restaurants don’t let people smoke inside, but yet, they haven’t extended that law to their outside facilities. As a result, you end up preoccupied with the quality of your air than the quality of your food.
“Hey go outside if you are going to smoke asshole! Unless we decide we want to eat out there, then you can go….well I don’t really know, but somewhere you don’t stink up our air! We know we have the option to go to the thousands of non smoking outdoor patio restaurants but we really like the Felafel here!”
4.Marathons / Triathlons / Ironmans / Bike Races:
Perceived Experience: World class athletes are pushing themselves to the max. Oxygen is their life and their fuel.
Reality: While at the Boston Marathon, I was blown away by the number of people who were smoking at the finish line. The poor athletes just had completed a 26 mile course, only to be greeted by clouds of smoke. So much for a cool down with quality oxygen intake.
So maybe you want to rephrase and say that at the finish line of such races people shouldn’t smoke, as athletes may not appreciate it. Or are you really saying we should enforce no smoking along the entire 26 mile course? I am sure police and security would think that was a very fine use of their budget to protect a nameless athlete from the possibility of catching a whiff of cigarette smoke that will obviously shut down his well trained and finely honed lungs. Maybe that was how Lance Armstrong got cancer after all.
5.Skiing/Snowboarding:
Perceived Experience: Much like the ‘Parks/Nature Preserves’, you escape to the mountains for some one-on-one with nature, snow and skiing. You look forward to the majestic views of the slopes from your favorite chair lift.
Reality: The people in front of you on the chair lift are taking their 10 minute smoke break. You feel like you are in a tobacco plant as the breeze gently carries the smoke down the mountain back at you.
First I would like to applaud you for bringing this one up Brett! I certainly know that the most dangerous thing to worry about while sitting on a chair lift 40 feet off the ground suspended by nothing but a vertical, mechanized cable is the possibility the guy in front of you will be a smoker, and that maybe you will breathe in this insensitive asshole’s smoke the whole way up the slope! Doesn’t he understand that you have a right to clean air? The right to look at mountains without being molested by this jerk’s acrid smoke blaring into your face? The right to go down a hill filled with with obstacles at 20 to 40mph with two sticks on your feet? Doesn’t he know that his cigarette smoke can shorten your life?
6.Zoos/Amusement Parks:
Perceived Experience: You look forward to seeing your children’s faces light up while watching the lions, tigers and bears. Oh, my!
Reality: You and your children feel like you are soon to be on the endangered species list as you vie for a smokeless viewing point
Couldn’t agree with you more Brett! Whenever I pay money to go watch animals- who are taken out of their natural habitat, stripped from their parents and own kind, and placed in small cage for my viewing pleasure- the first thing that comes to my mind is “Geez, this asshole smoking next to me sure is insensitive”!
7.At Entrances of Bars and Public Buildings:
Perceived Experience: Yes, you found a popular bar to go to for your Friday night outing. That is okay, though, you’ll be on line with your friends.
Reality: Since your local city doesn’t allow smoking inside the bar, all of the smokers crowd outside of the front door to inhale their favorite ciggy. The wait with your friends isn’t so pleasant after all.
Those dirty bastards! I go to bars all the time and I find that the smell of alcohol makes me sick. Every time I mention it though, the bartender always looks at me and says “Why are you at a bar then, man?” I guess they seem to think that if such an activity happens at those establishments, you have the RIGHT to not go. Instead, you can go to one of the above said THOUSANDS of establishments that are non-smoking both inside and outside, or did somebody force you to stand in a line full of smokers when nobody was looking?
In closing let me say this: Brett is a socialist. She has to be. Like the rest of the anti-smoking movement, she doesn’t believe in property rights at all and allowing the business owner to make the decision of whether or not they will allow smoking inside of their establishments. Instead, opting that because the business owner serves the public, that the public has no choice in whether they go into the establishment or not. It is a total logical absurdity, and she is a moron!
Licking my balls
Perceived experience: Your tongue gracefully touches upon Unrighteousufry’s balls, unicorns and elves cheer into the sunlight at the vision they are seeing and the majestic union before them.
Reality: Your head is forced down rather abruptly, and you come up choking and spitting out pubes!
Clueless Republican….should go back in the closet!
I had an article sent to me by a friend recently that was written by- what a shock- another dumb ass woman.
http://republicaninthearts.blogspot.com/2011/11/clueless-ron-paul-wants-to-befriend.html
Broken down, the article is about how Ron Paul is a moron. This would be all well and good [I am fine with people calling others idiots, either directly or indirectly] but only if it is warranted.
I swear we need to repeal women’s voting rights. They keep writing this crap and I keep debunking it. Women should just stop blogging about politics all together. Stick with what you know. Here are some helpful examples of things you can occupy your time with that are far more productive than your silly ass opinion about politics.
Or
First lets focus on the first thing this dolt…[though possibly hot since she is a republican, democrats are blah] has to say in her article.
“Thankfully, presidential-hopeful Ron Paul is in no way a viable candidate- straw polls be damned- because if this country wasn’t in trouble already, we’d take a further nose dive under his leadership.”
It’s always nice when morons post a second statement to back up a first statement that had nothing to do with with the first statement. Using very strange logic, Clueless Republican Woman or lets just say CRW for short, managed in one sentence to destroy her own argument.
She says Ron Paul isn’t viable…then points out the very straw polls that make him viable! Way to go dipshit! You have me sold. It certainly looks like the people of Illinois don’t think he is viable either.
Then CRW goes on to say that our country would go even further down the toilet on his watch than Barack Obama! I have to assume she means Barack Obama since he is the one in charge now, and Ron Paul would only come to power by ousting him in the next election.
Next retarded statement.
“Paul is a naive fool at best when it comes to foreign policy.”
Way to go on your research CRW. You really nailed this one! You are so right! Aside from sitting on the “House International Relations Committee” and writing a bestselling book on the subject, “Foreign Policy Of Freedom” as well as having actually been in the military [unlike every other candidate running] I would say the man is a totally naive fool when it comes to foreign policy.
Of course CRW, if you have a history of sitting on congressional committees that have to do with foreign policy or have put hundreds of hours of research into a foreign policy plan based on what our founding fathers practiced and put that knowledge into a book that thousands bought, I will shut up right now and concede that you are right. What’s that you say? You don’t? Oh, OK got it.
Based on your awesome foreign policy background, which I am sure rivals Ron Paul’s to be sure, I totally agree with your next comments since you are qualified to make them.
“His latest comments regarding Iran categorically prove that he is totally clueless, and would be a monumental disaster for the U.S.”
Here is the dictionary definition of categorically.
“Being without exception or qualification; absolute.”
Boy I would say he is certainly “categorically” clueless also! Especially when you add what CRW has to say next to back up that claim!
“Most everyone in the world knows that Iran is in no way trustworthy, and that their nuclear ambitions are not as innocent as they would have us believe.”
Let me add to the list of countries that most people in the world don’t find very trustworthy, that also have access to nukes:
- United States
- China
- India
- Russia
- North Korea
- Pakistan
- Britain
- Israel
Now, can you honestly say that you trust any of the above countries with their nukes except the United States? I am still waiting for somebody to adequately give me guidelines on how we determine what countries are or are not allowed to have nuclear weapons. The United States has invaded Iraq and Afghanistan- two sovereign countries- without provocation to kill terrorists even though the terrorists that attacked us came from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Lebanon, and The United Arab Emirates. If you didn’t see Iraq or Afghanistan on that list it’s because none of them were from either country. Yet we are still allowed to keep nuclear weapons and there is no call in the international community to disarm us. Iran has only had one major conflict in the 20th century and it was…..AGAINST IRAQ! It was also defensive- they were attacked first. Now I don’t know about you, but history is telling me that I am not so sure our country has the moral authority to tell theirs what to do.
Now how does CRW support her war drums against Iran?
“In fact, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the U.N.’s nuclear watchdog, is set to publish a report claiming that the Iranians worked diligently and secretly (thanks to Russians, North Koreans and Pakistanis!) on gathering all the information needed to build nuclear weapons. Apparently they now have pretty much all they need, and with a mere 6 months to enrich uranium they would be good to go.”
First off, why in God’s name would a Republican listen to the U.N. about anything? Republicans are always [and rightly so] trying to cut U.N. funding from the United States for being scumbag motherfuckers run by dictators, fascists, and nation states. Yet I guess when the report supports what CRW wants, the U.N. is suddenly trustworthy and good. Oh yes, with a packet of rainbow skittles and a smile the [IAEA] was able to uncover a sinister plot hatched by the Russians, Pakistanis, and North Koreans to give the Iranians all the information they need to know about making nuclear bombs [information that has been public for years]
http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Make-An-Atomic-Bomb-53392.shtml
Yes, good Job [IAEA]! We wouldn’t want this sensitive information to get out!
Of course Ron Paul, who receives CIA briefings, says that Iran is years away from making a nuclear weapon. Of course, our government has a good track record of figuring out which country’s do or do not have WMD’s don’t we? Still I will take our CIA’s word over the [IAEA] any day not that I really trust either agency. Of course our awesome host CRW then goes on to almost contradict herself in the first sentence again!
“They are not saying that Iran has plans to do that, but the possibility of a nuclear Iran should strike fear in everyone. But not Ron Paul. No, Paul believes that the Iranian nuclear issue has been “blown out of proportion”, and seems to think that “offering friendship to them” is a far better deterrent to their nuclear goals than sanctions.”
Ok, so the [IAEA] is not saying that Iranians are planning on enriching uranium to create nuclear bombs? So what proof do you have that they are going to? Oh that’s right- a gut feeling or something…they aren’t trustworthy right? I also now have information on how to build a nuke which I read on my above link….should my house be invaded until I give up my nuclear knowledge which will now have to be removed via ice cream scooper from my brain?
Also, offering friendship and open trade to a country usually is a great deterrent from war, as history has shown profit deters war…unless war is the profit. Then sanctions will probably lead to war [as they have done in the past- just look at Iraq]
We also have another great deterrent to Iran ever using WMD’s against anybody- ever! You ready for this?
The IDF dumbass!
The Israelis have access to over 400 nuclear weapons and can deploy into Iran in a matter of hours for a full invasion. They have they finest air, land, and sea force in the entire region. Why does America need to be there shedding blood with them again? I don’t see the IDF in any of our wars helping out. Our best bet is to mind our fucking business and let the rest of the world blow itself up. How and why is this a bad plan? Then CRW goes on to say…
“At least that’s what he told Fox News Sunday. Well, I have news for Mr. Paul. It won’t work. They have no desire to befriend “the great satan”. They despise us and everything we stand for.”
Again, this is all based on your extensive foreign policy background, right? Or maybe you have been drinking the kool aid and not doing any of your own research. What makes you think Iranians despise us? Because of comments their unelected president (who is just a puppet to the real power in that country) says? I am sure they would hate us less if we hadn’t fucked up that country’s democracy by toppling their elected leader Mohammad Mosaddegh and giving his seat to a puppet authoritarian dictator! Then we demand endless sanctions against them because they want to protect themselves from aggressive neighbors like Iraq, whom they fought the longest war of twentieth century with, and weren’t the aggressors? Your inability to put yourself in somebody else’s shoes is absolutely amazing, lady! If I were Iranian, I would probably want nukes to!
She finishes with this.
Ron Paul isn’t going to change the Islamist mindset, and he’s a major fool to think he can.
Maybe you are a fool to think he can’t. History is full of great men who do just that! Change the course of public opinion globally. If the United States became the friend to all, enemy to none, more people than just the towel heads would change their opinions of us, that is for sure. Don’t think it is possible? Look at Sweden. They have declared neutrality in all conflicts since 1900….who are their enemies…NONE! I don’t like their gun laws and many of their socialist entitlement programs BUT…they got it right on foreign policy!
In closing…you are a dolt. You have potential though, just do a little research before opening your mouth and allowing too much woman feeling to overcome your logic!
Hal Lacino, you are a coward! Family guy is awesome!
While looking up a family guy episode online today I came across this asshole, who actually has a petition to shut down the cartoon, Family Guy.
http://hallicino.hubpages.com/hub/Petition-The-FCC-To-Ban-Foxs-Family-Guy-On-Obscenity-Violations
This Canadian turd’s name is Hal Lacino, at least that is the handle he posts with.
After reading his carefully constructed, socialist, bullshit, I realized immediately [yes, because I am brilliant] That Hal is in fact a coward, and a pussy.
Being that I am the manliest of men who has ever walked [or ever will walk] this entire earth, I saw that it fell to me to smash this idiot’s sissy talk to death with my opinion stick.
You see, Hal, being the socialist Canadian fucktard that he is, wants to shut down a show he doesn’t like, [Oh look a socialist who wants everything to shut up he doesn't agree with, I could lick my finger and stick it in a light socket and walk away less shocked]
Typically speaking, I applaud the manliness of men who take up a cause and fight for it. In fact I don’t think there is anything manlier. In Hal’s case though he shows almost right away that he is a coward. Yes, here is Hal’s brilliant plan to shut down the multi-million dollar humor empire that is Family Guy.
“This is where I need your help. I am a Canadian citizen, thus am prohibited from filing a complaint with the FCC. I need you and your American citizenship to file this complaint which may lead to Fox taking Family Guy off the air entirely, or at least relegate it to past 10:00 p.m. watershed period. This would also seriously affect the show’s syndication frequency and the millions of dollars Fox makes off the show every single day” (yes, every day well over a million dollars in syndication revenue alone).
“The hundreds of television stations which currently carry syndicated eps of Family Guy will drop it like a hot potato if they can only show it in the graveyard time slots between 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m.! Fox will be hit in excess of one billion dollars in lost revenue, which has to be the most effective penalty possible for the egregious violations of American law the network has been airing for almost a full decade!”
Well Hal, here I am to the rescue, to show that you in fact don’t have to be a pussy and rely on the Americans you so despise to do your dirty work for you. Here is the FCC contact info you need.
Julius Genachowski, Chairman
FCC
Federal Communications Commission
445 12th Street, S.W.
Washington, DC 20554
Primary Phone: 1-888-225-5322
Fax: 202-418-0710
E-Mail: Julius Genachowski, FCC
Below you will find my link, Hal, to the to the broadcast indecency website. This website allows you to file an indecency complaint with the FCC even if you’re in Canada.
https://www.parentstv.org/ptc/fcc/fcccomplaint.asp
Just go down to select a state and put Canada in. I am sure even a moron like you can accomplish that, Hal.
Now either Hal didn’t know this [which proves he is a moron of the first order] or he is a being a lying, spineless, Canadian Asshat! My guess is the latter.
The next phase of Hal’s brilliant plan [this guy should have been a military strategist instead of a Canadian, lost cause pursuing, puke] is to try to hit Fox broadcasting in the wallet during an economic recession. Thus probably costing hundreds of people their jobs. All because he claims that they are in violation of “American Law” as he puts it. So they deserve it! Good job Hal. I am sure it will all be worth it to you though, to shut up people you don’t agree with.
What Hal fails to understand is that the only American law that most Americans even give a shit about is the constitution. Here is the first amendment for you to View Hal,
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.
Since the congress enacted the FCC using title 47,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_47_of_the_United_States_Code
and the FCC says this about regulating speech
http://www.ucop.edu/irc/services/documents/indecencymemo.pdf
I would say the fact that they even exist is a violation of American Law wouldn’t you Hal?
You see ladies and gentleman, Hal really is doing this because he has another problem. His problem is he is an occultist.
Stop worshiping children Hal!
I have seen this nutty trend pop up all over the place lately. This child worship cult-like behavior is just crap. What it is really used for is using children as a scapegoat to get what you want. Which Hal unequivocally proves when he says this as a response to a commenter on his site who dared question his stupidity.
I have said all along if an adult wants to watch trash (as long as it’s legal), it’s up to them. The exposure to children must be stopped. Put FG on pay per view and everyone gets what they want and children are no longer going to be exposed to this filth.
Good job Hal! We all know that the real world is really just sunshine and rainbows. It’s good to know that there is somebody out there who wants the next generation totally indoctrinated into what he believes they should believe, versus letting them decide for themselves. That’s cool Hal, I can respect that. So can most slaves around the world I’m sure. That would of course be you, right Hal? The champion of children’s rights! He is here to save all of you idiots out there that can’t save yourselves! By banning Family Guy, whole generations of children will be saved by you, Hal! You’re a Hero! You deserve a medal!
Here you go Hal! You earned it!
The truth is that the world is a fucked up place. Trying to shelter children from it doesn’t do them any service at all. Not allowing them to watch a cartoon that pokes fun at society, customs, religion, you name it, does them what service exactly Hal? What are you saving them from? Is there any statistic you can point to saying that children who watch family guy are more likely to “Insert bad thing here”? No you can’t. In fact there is no statistically proven correlation anywhere that something like that has ever happened with any TV show. Occasionally some kids will mimic something they saw on TV or somewhere else for that matter….so will ADULTS! This is fine…especially if that thing is very stupid, as it helps weed out the idiots.
There are MILLIONS of people who watch Family Guy Hal! I know you think all of them are perverts and sexual deviants, lets just assume that is true. Will taking Family Guy off the air suddenly change them? Of course it wouldn’t. Your entire line of reasoning is ridiculous Hal!
If a 12 year old boy sits in his room watching Family Guy, how does that affect you at all Hal? Does that make him a bad person Hal? Is he doing something wrong in your view? Is he more likely to grow up and be a serial killer, or a rapist? Is he gonna be a pedophile Hal? You’re not very clear here on what we are saving our children from. You certainly can’t point to any scientific studies showing that kids brains suddenly become scrambled and psychotic because they watch a TV show.
The truth is, Hal, you think that everybody in the world should be exactly like you and agree with you. If they don’t, you very cowardly try to sic some government lap dog on them and cry about how our children are being hurt by some unexplained force that suddenly takes away all of their ability to reason. Kids aren’t stupid Hal. 99% of them won’t watch a show where somebody gets shot and go shoot somebody because of it. The 1% that will…are fucked in the head whether the show is on or not.
To further prove how much of a coward Hal is [as if we needed more] look at his response to one of the commenters on his page who asked why his comments were deleted.
I delete all comments from MORONS who repeat “DON’T WATCH IT” and anything with expletives. Unlike the mass perversions you’re accustomed to Hubpages is a CHILD-FRIENDLY SITE!
So my guess is the commenter made a good point and Hal was too cowardly to post it on his site. Unrighteousfury will never delete a comment from his site by a viewer unless it is obvious spam, even if I think viewer is a moron! That is because I am not a coward and I am not afraid of somebody’s opinion.
Hubpages is so child friendly that Hal himself readily insults anybody that disagrees with him. These are the lessons he wants the next generation to learn. If somebody disagrees with you insult them, delete their comments or censure them any way you can, or report them to the government. Sorry Hal, I’ll take the Family Guy generation, and freedom to choose what I watch, how I watch, and where I watch, over your shitty lessons to the next generation!
Also, seriously Hal? How many children do you think are honestly looking at your website? Or did you put Walt Disney down as a tag line to drive underage traffic? Don’t be a fucking retarded monkey with a keyboard Hal, it’s obvious you are full of dogshit, demonizing people who like something you don’t and calling them perverts! What kind of sick fuck are you anyways?
Just try to look at your argument logically for a minute. You think the FCC should have the right to censure material they do not approve of? Since Family Guy watchers do not approve of your website should they file a complaint with the FCC? And should the FCC, if they thought your website didn’t fit in with what they consider free speech, be able to shut you down?
You know the answer to this question Hal. Don’t act like moron [unless you can't help it]. Try to be rational and not a total socialist Fuckhead! We can never let the government dictate what free speech is, Hal. NOT EVER! If you give them that power then you will lose free speech forever. Even if you hate Family Guy, hate it’s message, hate people who view it, you should still respect their right to do so. Especially since it affects your life not at all. If it does…then give me one good example of how. Just one Hal. How does Family Guy being on the air actually affect you personally? If the answer is “It doesn’t” then you have just had a realization that your crusade is idiotic. If the answer is “Well it doesn’t but it may possibly, maybe, under the exact right circumstances , have a damaging effect on a child somewhere, though it isn’t very probable.” Then you have also just realized that you are a fucking idiot! If that were the case then we should ban the literally MILLIONS of products kids manage to hurt themselves with every year.
Are you starting to understand that you are in fact a moron, Hal? Is the picture coming together for you yet? Are you still going to hide behind your cowardly website? Are you going to cowardly censure me on your sight as well? If I make a comment will you delete it because you are afraid of somebody’s point of view to that extent?
To all viewers, if you don’t see a comment from Unrighteousfury on ol Hal’s site, rest assured he has censured it like the coward he is. Grow a sack Hal. Don’t delete comments you don’t like just because you are a pussy, after all didn’t you say:
So… will you help? Let me know in the comments section (this entire process will be kept totally transparent and fully public) and let’s do it!
Well, people’s opinions are certainly part of the process, Hal. You promised to be totally transparent and open with the public. If you delete comments that have dissent in them then you are no longer being intellectually honest about how the process is going now are you? Stop silencing people to make yourself look good Hal. It doesn’t. It makes you like the spineless, socialist, weasel you are.
Now that that is out of the way let’s look at more of some of the things dipshit Hal has to say on his website that should be renamed “The Communist Manifesto”
Let’s not even start on the topic of blaspheming most of the world’s great religions which is a hate crime also not covered by free speech protections
WOW Hal! Your a genius, I want to show you picture of what I did to fact check this little piece of garbage. I show this to you, so you can in the future use it to fact check things you say, before you try to mislead the public with your uninformed horsehit!
Look at the purple in the text this wasn't difficult information to find!
So Hal we can take your word for it, or we can listen to Wikipedia? Ahhhh the choices the choices.
Even though I believe you Hal, let’s just take a look at what Wikipedia has to say on the subject anyways.
Because of the First Amendment’s protection of free speech and religious exercise from federal interference, and the Fourteenth Amendment’s extension of those protections against state regulation, the United States and its constituent state governments may not prosecute blasphemous speech or religious insults and may not allow civil actions on those grounds. In Joseph Burstyn, Inc. v. Wilson, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that New York could not enforce a censorship law against filmmakers whose films contained “sacrilegious” content. The opinion of the Court, by Justice Clark, stated that:
“from the standpoint of freedom of speech and the press, it is enough to point out that the state has no legitimate interest in protecting any or all religions from views distasteful to them which is sufficient to justify prior restraints upon the expression of those views. It is not the business of government in our nation to suppress real or imagined attacks upon a particular religious doctrine, whether they appear in publications, speeches, or motion pictures.”
Also just so we clarify what a hate crime is [Hal also seems to not understand this either] lets ask Wikipedia again! Wow the answer is astonishing!
A hate crime is a legal category used to described bias-motivated violence: “assault, injury, and murder on the basis of certain personal characteristics: different appearance, different color, different nationality, different language, different religion.”[2]
Damn those fictitious cartoon characters and their evil real world violence against the good and moral peoples of Canada, and the United States.
You are a liar, Hal. Unless you just chose not to fact check your petition and article before you wrote it. In that case you are just a Moron. Maybe you should petition Wikipedia to remove their definitions that are taken from the dictionary. Who knows, you might be more successful then you have been shutting down Family Guy.
Ahhh, and last but not least we have this great little gem from our good friend Hal.
Seth MacFarlane (who very well may be the single greatest threat to the overall welfare and ethical future of the nation, far more than any politician or terrorist
This guy actually thinks that the creator of a TV cartoon may be as dangerous to our overall welfare as politicians or terrorists? Think about the staggering ramifications, of this guys intelligence just making a statement like that!
Let me note some very good reasons why a terrorist is according to my logical breakdown more dangerous than a goofy cartoon show.
You ready for this….BECAUSE HE IS A FUCKING TERRORIST!
He can poison your water, shoot you in the head, use you as a hostage, blow up a building you are in…the list goes on and on. Until I see Family Guy do that, or a viewer of family guy do that because he watches family guy then I would say Hal you are an idiot!
I could breakdown all the reasons politicians are more dangerous as well, but I don’t think I need to.
Let me leave Hal with some final thoughts.
Hal, I went to a police sketch artist and asked him if he could draw you. He said he would do his best to incorporate what you might look like based on what what you have written. Here is his sketch,
If you see Hal, This is probably what he looks like. Don't get to close he might rub off on you.
Have a great day Hal!
