First Amendent Freedoms

I read with interest the input from Tracy Ingram this morning. While I may
not agree on a specific philosophy, a specific point or a specific manner of
presentation, I will not and can not deny that person the right to state his
or her case. This is the foundation of our First Amendent Freedoms.

Tracy Ingram, and the person who bemoaned that lack of "journalistic
professionalism" on this list, tread heavily on those freedoms to express
opinions. Whether or not we are a minority within the AERC and/or endurance
community is beside the point. Read these two posts very carefully as they
both contain the seeds of what could become a trend to suppress the free
exchange of ideas.

Let us not prescribe or proscribe content on this list. That is a path
fraught with danger and unworthy of the caring individuals who subscribe to
this list.
