It's interesting for me to find this message today about MY first amendment rights and freedom of speech. I too as a decent US of America citizen am "supposed" to be entitled to that privilege not just political people like Kenneth Starr, but I wonder where my freedom of speech has gone (?) I'd really like for you to check out my website (http://www.geocities.com/collegepark/library/7652) where I have posted a letter by Ohio State University trying to censor and cover up what they have already done to me and many other people. I am damn sick of that school stomping their feet around and getting everything they demand no matter who they hurt or screw up, and the media covers for them. -- Andrea Nella Raso Angsto the Clown wrote in message <3504C998.19AC93E8@iwaynet.net>... >http://www.iwaynet.net/~angsto/illegalaction.htm > >This kind of nonsense has been dumped on me for 5 years.
