(As Wesley Snipes said in "Demolition Man": You can't take away somebody's right to be an asshole.) And while George Takei's response is humorous, I wish it had been a serious response. While I don't think the human race will EVER be without bigotry of some kind, we can't keep poking fun at bigotry to rid ourselves of it.
