If so, what is the limit (if any) of such freedom? Should we be allowed to express disagreement with major politicians? Is being allowed to utter blasphemies and obscenities 'freedom of speech'? Are we being led by the nose to accept one, but be denied the other? Which is more important to you? Let's have some serious disagreements, now. Rob |

Yes, we do, though too many forget that with 'freedom' comes 'responsibility'. I don't think that 'freedom of speech' is a license to say anything you like without consequences. There are good consequences or bad ones depending on what we utter and to whom. |
