Jeffs Reviews

I review computer hardware and software, consumer electronics, kitchen gadgets and tools. Almost all I know about computers comes from hands on learning on the internet on my own, no classes or college in computers. I have built a few computers on my own and do all the work for all the reviews I write, contacting the companies myself and asking for things I am interested in purchasing myself. I work hard to bring you my opinions of the things I review and hope you enjoy my writing.

It's free speech, but is it right?

I just heard a story on GMA, my favorite show in the morning, about a website called Juicy Campus. The site is fine for the people that want to joke and have fun posting stuff about each other but many are using it as a hate site and a way to post malicious content about others including racist, sexist and many derogatory things.

I think it is appalling for people to treat others like this but it is free speech. Its like a group of neo nazis protesting peacefully and without violence against others that you can pretty well guess who is. It is an atrocious thing to hate others based on their race, religion or even sex but they are speaking their opinions and that is one of the founding principles of our country.

We have to have tolerance for many things in these modern days but when does it become a fundamental right to promote and make it easy for people to hate others and ridicule things about them that are different. I think we should peacefully and with our own rights protest these types of sites by not going their even out of curiosity and definetely let our campuses and universities know what we feel about it.

If the campus lets people freely go their protest the fact that the campus is allowing this kind of racist and sexist behaviour on their servers that the entire student body is paying for. Your hard earned money that is paying for your childs education is going to a campus that allows the kinds of sites that we tell our kids to not go to and not to be a part of. Tell them you won't pay for them to allow students access to these sites, they can do it as part of their policy. They can make a rule to ban certain sites as part of their campus or university policy against hatred or racism, sexism or cruelty to others.

I understand it is free speech to be able to speak your mind, but is it the right thing to do. In the bigger picture we as human beings need to get along enough in this world to be able to evolve as people. If we hate and use our energy to put things down and make things worse how can we make things better on the planet we all live.

We have to get along, if we don't, wars happen.

    After getting more than 10000 visitors/day to my website I thought your commonpchelp.blogspot.com website also need unstoppable flow of traffic...

    Use this BRAND NEW software and get all the traffic for your website you will ever need ...

    In testing phase it generated 867,981 visitors and $540,340.

    Then another $86,299.13 in 90 days to be exact. That's $958.88 a
    day!!

    And all it took was 10 minutes to set up and run.

    But how does it work??

    You just configure the system, click the mouse button a few
    times, activate the software, copy and paste a few links and
    you're done!!

    Embracing the latest technology to remain competitive, industrial design, you must offer their customers convenient and less
    time to process. s Sissy sandal is a long-time classic favorite style and
    is available in a variety of colors and fabrics including Veg-Tan and
    crinkle patent leather. If you build a website, which is based on content; it will have
    more content and less graphic pictures.
