Got this mug and the delicious Cabin Coffee it’s holding at the souvenir tent @hfxjazzfest

@jamescdwyer I have it, and I’ve been called a couple times

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @sarahwhitehfx I've wondered this for years.

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@oneredcatmedia I'd say if your free speech incites violence against a group of people, that is not free speech. As there was likely some of this type of speech at the NCA rally, then yes they should be banned.

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash Thanks for helping me exercise my debate and discussion muscles. I hope you have the chance to enjoy this beautiful Monday.

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @achamius @HfxRegPolice And I’m grateful for that privilege.

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @achamius @HfxRegPolice The only point I’m trying to make is people shouldn’t be denied the right to speak because that can lead to places where what we now consider legitimate ideas can be banned

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @achamius @HfxRegPolice I’m not allowed to reconsider my position? I choose to ignore these people and you choose to protest them. Both actions demonstrate opposition to their ideology

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @achamius @HfxRegPolice It is a free speech issue, because where does that end? ‘I like the Maple Leafs but society says I have to like the Canadiens therefore my right to publicly cheer for my team should be banned?’

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @achamius @HfxRegPolice Both ignoring AND protesting have their place.

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @achamius @HfxRegPolice I didn’t say we shouldn’t fight back (quite the opposite, these people need to be opposed soundly) I just think it’s naive to think we can eliminate evil, which has existed since the beginning of time.

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @achamius @HfxRegPolice I oppose the idea that people whose ideas we don’t like should be banned from expressing them, because the same principle that bans that person from speaking could be used in ways we can’t fathom yet.

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @achamius @HfxRegPolice I think groups like this need to be protested in every way imaginable. That doesn’t mean i want my fellow Canadians right to be wrong suppressed, because where does that end?

[HalifaxCoffeeGeek @Hfx_Coffee]

@happystash @achamius @HfxRegPolice EDIT: I’m NOT standing up for this group or any like it.
