TWO Americans are not PC enough to back down? Are things changing?

Animal Rights groups are angry at U.S. figure skater Johnny Weir for having a little fox fur on his skating outfit. He took in their comments and told them HIS THOUGHTS., one of which is: “I tend to focus my energy, if there is a cause, on humans. While that may be callous and bad of me, it’s my choice.”
While nobody at geeeeeZ advocates cruelty to animals, and the blog owner actually loves animals, I think Weir got it right when he reminded the groups that “Every skater is wearing skates made out of cow...”
The animal groups can whine and complain all they want, we Conservatives honor and respect that, but FINALLY, somebody in the limelight who demanded HIS truth be listened to, as well, and didn't back down. We respect THAT, too.
Kudos, Johnny Weir.

THEN THERE IS THIS, EVEN MORE IMPORTANT STORY FROM JUST N. OF LOS ANGELES!
This councilman said he was a "PROUD RACIST" and he's not backing down BECAUSE, his actual comment was "If believing in America causes people to think he's a racist, "then I'm a proud racist." Here's THE STORY............you'll want to see what's going on. This guy's holding to his statement and you'll see why.

Gosh..maybe something's happening...maybe we can get to where people can actually say what they think in this country without intimidation ....ya THINK?
