Freedom of speech is a vital commodity,sadly not afforded in some quarters.  | | | |

In my opinion people are too wound up or suspicious nowadays.
We are slaves to work and the worries that everyday living brings.
Due to fatigue we forget to enjoy.
We should all work a day less. |  | | |

Problem is, people claim "freedom of speech" but they don't accept the other side of the coin, namely taking responsibility for comments made using "freedom of speech".
"Freedom of speech" doesn't excuse people for abuse, racism et al. | |

If somebody says something daft the correct response is to laugh at them not reach for the gag, though. Putting limits on discourse is a slippery slope. | |

Indeed, Loh, but it depends what the comment is and how you define "daft".
Should someone laugh off being publicly ( and falsely ) accused of being a paedo without recourse to the law?
With the internet especially, it's almost approaching "wild west" proportions where vile comments and accusations can be thrown around, people expecting to be allowed to do so. | |

No of course there should be recourse to the law for slander but I was only really thinking about political discourse and the response by the police and local authorities in upholding an innate freedom in the face of rent-a-mob violence. | |

No one should be allowed an opinion but myself.
Sorry. Sorry. Got a bit lost then. I was channeling Theresa May. | | | |
