Liberty or Death

Les Bates has an interesting warning about what the First Amendment protects America from. He says that if free speech is suppressed, the arguments will have to come out of the barrel of a gun. Since Leftists are antigun and therefore are presumably less likely to own guns, they should perhaps ease up from their attacks on free speech. They might not survive the alternative very well. Fortunately, it is extremely unlikely to come to that in the USA. But we see in Iraq what lack of tolerance between different belief-groups leads to.
