What he wants you to do is what you did. React to his posts. He is a troll. Once I figured that out, I stopped reading anything he wrote that was over two lines long--and usually skip even those. |

Being against government funding of supposedly offensive art does not neccessarily contravene libertarian principles, as long as you still defend the artist's right to produce the art on his own dime.

You've teased out the issue exceptionally well and it is precisely this kind of self-indulgent sense of public entitlement that offends many of us who consider ourselves supporters of the arts. Giulani's stance had nothing to do with ideology. Indeed, as a shrewd politico, he probably would have much preferred to have the whole controversy go away on its own. |
