I am also an author who writes true crime articles and does not support historical revisionism.Clanquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13182591598727811211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2059662573798496304.post-80445067597822964712011-01-07T19:38:47.698-05:002011-01-07T19:38:47.698-05:00This as free Americans we cannot allow, because on...This as free Americans we cannot allow, because once they are allowed to change writings of past authors then it isn't far off that what you and I write will be edited, or even worse censored. <br /><br /> This is essentially free speech, an effective way of removing our right of free speech is to make everything into some sort of offensive or racially motivated thought that somehow will ruin civilization. <br /><br /> Where on the contrary taking away our the right to speak or write freely, even if it is offensive at times fosters change and understanding. <br /><br /> Great post, love the way you think and write!Greghttp://thedeevolutionofman.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2059662573798496304.post-87031603014042152442011-01-07T17:27:45.274-05:002011-01-07T17:27:45.274-05:00EJ, this topic has one of my pals from a discussio...EJ, this topic has one of my pals from a discussion group fuming.

Thank you for mentioning my post and the link. <br /><br />I read in the Twain matter that the revisionist, Mr. Gribben is an expert on Twain and during his discussion groups about the books, he found people reluctant to join in because they found those particular words offensive and uncomfortable. That is so liberal leftish, unable to face reality and the facts about their own past. What kind of wishy-washy discussion group was he running?Edisto Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06557175926703259269noreply@blogger.com
