That you would support such a Trashy place speaks alot about your Chracter, that you lack sensitivity to the extreme. Frankly I am shocked at some of the big names like ED Shroeder that i see post there. Your Freedom of speech baloney is the exact same rhetoric the Klu Klux Klan using when staging Marches and protest here in the U.S.A. My advice to you Fernando is to first go back on vacation a little longer, and then take some cultural sensitivity courses, when you associate with racist you make yourself indirectly one.
