Freedom of speach means that you must be ready to defend to the death the right of someone to say something that you would oppose with every fiber of your being at the top of your lungs. It is hard, but it freedom is not easy.
I think the guy is scum, but he has the right to say what he wants. As soon as we start censoring others, we lose freedom.
And that just ain't worth it. |
