The article seems a bit singular to me, like the USA are the best place to be when considering free speech. I certainly do not hold all wisdom, but I'd like to spice up the discussion a bit  |
I'm actually not sure how we've kept free speech this long in the form we have. We certainly have lost a lot of freedom in recent times, but I guess we just really like our freedom of speech? I'm not sure our system is the best (I wouldn't be able to say that anyway having never lived anywhere else), but I do like that we are able to express our views even when others don't like them.
