OK to Insult NASCAR Fans

The Leftist double standard is endless. You are not allowed to look crosseyed at a black or a homosexual but you can insult white NASCAR fans all you like, apparently.

Some Democrat lawmakers speaking in the legislature of Washington State recently described NASCAR fans as "toothless, white trash rednecks" and said of them "These people are not the kind of people you would want living next door to you. They'd be the ones with the junky cars in the front yard and would try to slip around the law."

Another high-powered intellectual in the State house -- the Speaker, in fact -- implied that NASCAR Richard Petty looked like a drunken felon, saying "You mean the guy who got picked up for DUI?" In fact, Mr. Petty does not drink alcohol.

Details here Did anybody notice any of that wicked prejudice or stereotyping there?

There is a video of the wonderfully "enlightened" comments here. Those guys sure know how to set an example for us all.

You can imagine the endless caterwauling in the press if a Republican had said something similar about (say) the NBA.

But their is hope for the freedom of expression thanks to the Supreme Court.....

Free to Criticize Homosexuality Again?

The obnoxious 9th Circuit gets a black eye:

"The Supreme Court in an order today gave the nation great news for student free speech rights by vacating the widely-criticized decision of the Ninth Circuit in Harper v. Poway Unified School District. The Ninth Circuit had denied a preliminary injunction to a high school student, Chase Harper, whom the Poway School District punished for wearing a homemade T-shirt at school that read, "Homosexuality is shameful," because it was offensive to observers who practice or support homosexual conduct. Today's Supreme Court's order vacates one of the worst decisions ever against freedom of speech for students.
