    As told by the left, which thinks its centrist.

    It's a pretty fucking bipartisan understanding that the First Amendment doesn't protect you from being criticized for your opinion. Jesus.

    Ok then, please explain to me how this is a first amendment issue.

    Bullshit. There's "special groups" all over the map on one political end that are, perhaps not in written form, but implied, are protected. Maybe it's a little too subtle for you but it's there. My bet is you know it is and just choose to spin it.

    I'm not going to go deeper on this and expose the hypocrisy that "politics" threads aren't supposed to exist. It depends on the side you're coming from. And that in itself is a good explanation why Dick and JC, you don't see the reality of the situation I presented.

    Explain to me like I'm a second grader how Tony Dungy's First Amendment rights have been imposed upon.

    The only reality of this situation is that the first amendment has nothing to do with what you're talking about.

    Hey, Creosote keeps putting "God" in quotation marks -- basically mocking the entire concept.

    Goose, gander, carry on.

    In my defense, I'm not mocking the entire concept. Just the part that says intolerance is a divine directive.

    You really think he can raise his level to that of a second grader?
