Hollywood conservatives coming out hiding?

A terrific op-ed by Chuck Norris on the "clandestine" conservative community in Hollywood, driven underground for years by the militant liberals who control the film and television industries.

Norris said there are signs that conservatives are willing to challenge the new Hollywood blacklist and exercise their right to freedom of speech and assembly.

From his column:
This is America, and we should respect the fact that we will have strong, diverse opinions, and we must allow one another the freedom of speech to air such opines, not suppress them through peer pressure of any type like children. I have many acting friends and many friends in politics. I vehemently disagree with some of them, and that is my American right, as it is theirs. We must agree to disagree agreeably, without blogging about or denigrating someone's life and character before the nation and rest of the world. We must do better at keeping the focus on the fact that we are Americans first; we are not just conservatives and liberals.
