Well Flirting with Fame was excellent. True Jackson,VP is a great show even though I do not like it and I apologise for all the negative things I have said about it in the past.
Degrassi was also great. Now there was a part where it was suggested that a character could be prosecuted for hate speech. Yes it is a crime in Cananda to publicly attack homosexuality, even for pastors behind pulpits. There is a movement for the same in the U.S. Now I am not homophobic but that is a violation of religious rights and free speech. So let me say some words. When there is free speech there will be people offended and there are ways to deal with being offended besides silencing speech you do not like. I had a teacher in high school who posted in his classroom a quote from a Nazi victim:
First they came for the communists, and I did not speak up because I was not a communist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak up because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the trae unionists, and I did not speak up because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Catholics, and I did not speak up because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me, and by that time there was nobdy left to speak up.
Do not just stand up for your rights, but stand up for others. Stand up for what is right even if you are standing alone!
