Silent Jay,

You framed the entire OP as if there was some sort of equivalency to their "transgressions". As I did not know who Galloway was, I assumed you acted in good faith and that this was basically a free speech double-standard. I immediately requested that you provide speech of his to compare. However, you did not act in good faith - you left off a critical piece of information. Galloway provided material support to Hamas - an organization listed in Canada as a terrorist organization.

So, while I did make an assumption that he was banned for his speech, that assumption was based on a belief that you had provided us with all of the information - which you had not. Furthermore, you didn't even provide "speech" of Galloway to compare to Coulter's.

In spite of that fact, we had already begun to debate the "speech" of Coulter, so I continued on that path - the path you set up in your OP and the path that you chose in your responses.

You are attempting to do a bait and switch and blame me for saying he was banned for speech. The fact is that it was a disingenuous OP that created that assumption.
