Plain-English summary
Offers condolences to the family of Jim Pouillon, who was murdered in Owosso, Michigan.
Commits to the American principle that the suppression of thought by any means and by either government or individuals must always yield to the right of free speech and that violence is never an appropriate response to a difference in beliefs.
