  • Always. 
    We shouldn't forget those places where free speech doesn't exist.

  • Does this freedom of speech include being able to say Merry Christmas to people we work with? Does it include not having to s -p..e ;ll when referring to a certain religion in the comments sections of newspapers and people referring to it as "that other religion" does it mean we can name it now?  Does it mean nurses are free to offer to pray for patients without being sacked? Does it mean that children won't have to learn to sing Baa Baa Pretty Sheep instead of the original version?

    Proverbs 29:11 A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.

    Free speech is ok, but don't say what you think without thinking.
