The bright light of public examination (call it shame, if you must, but no one is above criticism, right? - well one notable exception, but, that too, shall pass) is the great crucible of a free society. It quickly sifts through what has merit and what does not.
Hooray for pillories! I merely suggest the shame potentates apply the shame equally to all offending parties as defined by all aggrieved parties.

Where did I suggest that? I clearly indicated that it should be OKAY to put the Klan on cable access. They want to speak? Let them speak (and remove all doubt)...
Just like censorship, freedom of speech in a public form also cuts both ways.
If you're right, you're right. If you're wrong, you shouldn be able to be told you're wrong - and why.
I have always assumed this was the foundation of even having freedom of speech and a marketplace of ideas.

Or we could just let people "shame" whatever they want to "shame." Why do you hate freedom?
