Where does your freedom of speech begin and end? We all know that shouting "Fire" in a crowded theater is against the law, There are,of course, laws against libel and slander.So, The reality is that you cannot say anything about anyone at any time for any reason.
We know that people, of late, have been gaining extra protection for making what some consider the most disturbing and antagonizing speech. The Supreme Court protection - by an 8 to 1 Vote- made the provocative actions of the Westboro Baptist Church, Some find the statements made by Muslim Clerics within the United States to be disturbing and encouraging violence and yet for cultural , religious and some insist for racial reasons, We must allow what is being proclaimed to be proclaimed.
How careful do you feel YOU need to be when exercising your Freedom of Speech?
