But to me, Speaker's Corner = controversy. I hope no one thinks there's any doubt about her legacy...

mr2mk1g 10 #7 October 25, 2005 Quote Speaker's Corner = controversy often you're right. However I also like to think that sometimes Speakers Corner = people educated enough to know and care about what's going on around them and wish to discuss those issues with other like minded individuals - irrespective of which side of the controversy they sit. Just like I put my Trafalgar commemoration thread here last week - it belonged somewhere where people weren't going to turn it into a thread about boobies.

It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
