truer words
« on: July 02, 2020, 08:10:05 pm »
If all printers were determined not to print anything till they were sure it would offend nobody, there would be very little printed.

- Benjamin Franklin

So true; even today.

Agreed and I think we are forgetting about entitling everyone to their opinion and not being so thin skinned.  However it seems like that is out the window.
