That's pretty much the history of entire humanity. Freedom of speech doesn't mean you are free from the consequences of speaking, it means that the country you live in consider it a right.
And CH kept publishing on the same theme AFTER the murders, showing that they do, indeed, have freedom of speech, and are willing to use it.
- badpun 8y ago1. It is not freedom of speech, if the consequence of speach is death. 2. If the country considers freedom of speech a right, shouldn’t the country make serious attempts to protect it? It does so for other human rights.
- sametmax 8y agoFree speech is a general society convention, omnipotence doesn't exist. You have the right to not be raped as well, doesn't mean we can prevent all of them. What right do you know that can be guaranteed all the time, under any circonstance ?
- badpun 8y agoMy point is that the state is not doing enough to protect freedom of speech. Obviously, no 100% protection is ever possible.
