LPA Wants To Ban The Word “Midget”

The “little people of america inc.” (yes, they’re incorporated,) wants the FCC to put a ban on the word midget stating it’s a racial slur similar to the the word “nigger.” I believe strongly in the first amendment, that you should be able to speak and write whatever you want. I understand that the word could be offensive, and whoever uses the word should be judged for the context in which they use it. But not censored. I hate hate groups. I hate the KKK, but I believe they should be allowed to express their beliefs vocally and/or with the pen. And rational thinking people should be allowed to berate their beliefs in the same way, making them feel small and exposing their ignorance. Let’s not start banning more words. Let’s let the public, advertisers and peers judge the content of an idea, thought, or program and subject it to criticism and debate. I’m sick of this shit.

Little people want to ban words…
