Re: [ga] Jerry Falwell won't get Jerryfalwell.com WIPO says...

Well Jeffy my man you put it out there;

I think it is damnable deplorable and outright scandalous (although Jerry
and I do not see eye to eye).

But I would gladly give my very life to allow him the right to have such
freedom of speech.
We all owe a duty to our lessor enabled brothers and sisters to defend the
freedoms which are inalienable.
Each culture and ccTLD must decide for themselves what works within their
LIC but the more freedom the better for all of us concerned.

I do not necessarily agree with Jerry's virtue, but I will walk my children
through both sites to make sure that they understand the hazards and
correctness for standing for something.

The Internet will fall for anything if it does not stand for freedom of
thought and communication.
