While I don't agree with a lot of what Michael Savage has to say, why is it
that when a conservative says something "disagreeable" its labelled as "hate
speech" or "bigotry".  When a liberal, such as Spike Lee or Al Sharpton
makes an equally offensive statement, no one dares to touch it?

How is that any different from what a responsible PD does anyway?
