    I agree if you mean the artist and not the 'author' of the thread..... although there is room for debate there.....
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I answered "yes".

    Whoever made that picture has a perfect right to do so and to publish it if he likes. I reserve my right to say that, whoever he is, he's a d**ned fool and should probably keep his mouth shut in order not to interrupt people who have something useful to say.

    Rant over.

    The exercise of free speech is beautiful. That doesn't mean that the concept expressed can not be offensive.
    Examples: White power, Black power, whacko right wigers, whacko left wingers, and anyone who says "I'm just sayin' what I'm sayin'" when you disagree with them...of course you are, you half witted troglodyte...your misguided unclever tautology doesn't MEAN anything. But I digress.....
