As a writer who was also "silenced", I happen to know that although my stories don't get told as they should, I still get to write them down and enjoy their creation. (As do my closest friends and "fans".) Imagine a world without anyone who could inspire us with their art. This is the world these people are building. Glad I don't have to live in it. I for one wouldn't last very long in such a place. <i>Interesting comment Blayne, and while I agree with your sentiments, unfortunately, it seems we all have to live in the same world. I'd love the option of emigrating to The Planet of Nice People myself, but baring that, I believe I need to try to make this one as close to that ideal as possible. Silence is a choice. Speaking out, even if it is "just blogging" is a fight against those who would gag thoughts, ideas, and words not of their liking. - The Courtesan Connection </i> People who gag others only hurt themselves.
