but do you really believe no speech is needing scrutiny?
When did I say that? I said I don't believe speech should be "stopped", as in made to be illegal or something similar. Doesn't mean people saying stupid or offensive shit shouldn't be scrutinised, just means they have the right to say what they like. Equally people have the right to respond. The problem I personally have is that right now (in my country at least) freedom of speech is being hampered for fear that groups or individuals might be offended by things that people say.
