How Far is Too Far?

Freedom of Speech. Some people may argue that the problem with that is that it's free. Ann Coulter a well established extreme right wing columnist in the the U.S. Has recently journeyed her way to the University of Western Ontario where she proclaimed her controversial views on Muslims during her speech to the University she commented on how Muslims should no longer be allowed to fly on our airlines as they propose terrorist threats; following this comment a Muslim student asked her what was a better method of transportation.Coulter replied with the crude comment of " Go ride a camel to the U.S" When word leaked out of Coulter's polemicist ways and utter disregard for common courtesy, her next scheduled stop at the University of Ottawa was cancelled because of the outrageous amounts of angered protesters.

The question everyone is proposing is has she gone to far? The laws of Freedom o Speech in Canada are as the following revolving around the basic idea of defamation law. It is an attempt to balance the private right to protect someones reputation with the public right to freedom of speech. Defamation law gives people the privilege to sue those who say or publish false and malicious comments.At this time there have been no arrests or evidence of a trial,and no acts of reconciliation on the matter.

Ann Coulter in the eyes of many is a disgusting ,malicious monster who should know better. However Ann Coulter did her state right wing opinions which were quite offensive and derogatory. Ann Coulter has crossed the lines of what the meaning of freedom of speech should be allowed. Coulter should be sent away to learn the lesson of respect and how she can influence the world for the good and not the negative. If she hasn't gone too far this time, will she the next time?

Descriptive

The doors opened to the dusty saloon, the smell of liquor grasping every breath where the sharp edge of his hat lingered over the caterpillars he called his eyebrows;his eyes cringed as he stared off in the distance at the gleaming sun.His nose straight as a bone; a centimeter away from meeting the grimace of a smile he held on his face. His shirt clung to his shoulders as cold sweat dripped down his body,the pistols occupying his hands ready to fire on command.The ball of fire in the distance we call the sun was setting so beautifully.It was a typical scene every cowboy dreams of. Clint's jeans were tore around the edges,the responsibility for the slight damages was a scuffle earlier that day."There was bruises on the other guy,he was bloody to the bone" Clint said."However he was the one came out the real winner."

Love at first sight

So there's this guy. I know I know patience is a virtue but when I saw him our eyes locked he was definitely something more then what the cat dragged in.Bet you bottom dollar I wasn't going to just stand by while some other girl was trying to steal him away I wasn't born yesterday. All is fair in love and war you know. I was going to be as busy as a bee to make that girl avoid him like the plague. She was going to work as hard as a dog if she didn't want my brother to give her a knuckle sandwich for trying to steal away my knight in shining armour thank you very much.You might ask why this boy was so special,well he's tall ,dark and handsome , the usual prince charming type
