A kool kids klub club or westboro baptist church club in that kind of environment, I think any sane person would agree wouldn't exactly be appropriate. --- End quote --- luckily freedom of speech can also be used to badmouth them |

--- Quote from: Ragequit on October 11, 2015, 11:02:00 AM --- if you've been killing people your rights are pretty much gone at that point --- End quote --- The people who preach and radicalise aren't necessarily the ones who are doing the killing. Some haven't even been to the Middle East, they're radicalised westerners radicalising westerners. It gets a bit tricky if you say you deserve no rights if you support terrorist groups like CIA, although I would say you don't deserve freedom of speech in regards to that subject matter. |

Repressing free speech only closes an outlet for discontent, which will make its way out anyway. Better to allow it and let discontents, radicals, and raving madmen compete in the free market of ideas than force discontent through increasingly dangerous and violent outlets as legitimate ones are closed. |

the day the government restricts freedom of speech is the day the government realizes its corrupted and has to control the people to keep them from overthrowing it or showing the corruption |

There was a case where there was a woman who was attacked by her husband and was hiding in her basement while the husband was wandering out with a gun. The police knew where she was, and they media kept getting nosey and wouldn't forget off until the event was over. Had the police caved in and said the woman was in the basement, the husband who had access to the TV would have found her and killed her before the police could have saved her. So the police lied to the news and said she was in the attic. Like wise I think keeping news of school shootings restricted to the local area in which it occurred. There are too many shootings these days and almost all them are inspired by drama and people who want to be immortalized for 5 minutes as a murderer. |
