Women and men communicate differently, often on entirely different planes. But just as men have failed us, we have failed them.

Censorship Quotes
The idea that immigration law is being used as a tool of censorship is unacceptable. By regulating speech at our borders, we are sending the wrong message to the world. We must not have a double standard regarding the freedom of speech and dissent. That is one of the strengths of our democracy.
