I'm sorry if you are offended by my speech. You have as much right to be offended BY my speech as I have to speak. The quelling of free speech based on personal moral choices is still the quelling of free speech. As a Libertarian, I believe that as long as my speech does not violate your Constitutional rights my rights not only should not be abridged, but CANNOT be abridged. Today at work I was complaining about not being able to balance an account. I was out "ten fucking cents". At that point a Christian woman sitting in the cube next to me said "Watch your mouth, young man.". Why? Because your personal morals declare that I shouldn't use the word "fuck"? If that is the case, then your morals infringe on my Constitutional right to free speech. I guess this rant is the result of me being offended. It is her right to suggest that I watch my language, but she has NO right to quell my speech unless it infringes on the Constitutional rights of another. Fuck off.
