Love all the racism on here . Some people should be banned!

Speech is free in America. If you don't like what someone says or thinks, who cares? Who cares what they say, who cares what anyone thinks about it. Speech should always always always be free. It helps us figure out who to listen to and who not to, and much more. Get over it.
