Yes, we all have the right to do or say just about anything we please.* But there are consequences with everything we do and say...some consequences are better than others.* And so also, there are varying degrees of bigotry and ignorance.* People have the right to express themselves whether out of ignorance or wisdom.* And we all have the right and obligation to discern (judge, if you will) whether what they say is accurate and kind or misleading and arrogant.
