Andrew Sullivan | The Daily Dish: "17 May 2006 07:58 pm
A publicly-financed hotline to report on others' 'hate-speech' is unveiled in Colorado. Grrrrr. Free speech for bigots is not a great rallying cry; but if they don't have it, no one does. Provincetown, I believe, also has a police call-line for 'hate incidents.' What on earth is a 'hate-incident'? And what right does a cop have to police or monitor anyone's bigotry? It's worth remembering that freedom isn't only threatened by big government snoopers on the right; it's also beleaguered by the sensitivity police on the left."
