       In the realm of speech, a middle path should be sought, between absolute freedom to shout "fire!" in a crowded theatre, & abuse anyone we want, call in bomb-threats to schools, make up false-allegations of rape, & destroy lives; & on the other hand not restrict speech to the extent that we can't tell unpleasant truths, expose lies, & falsehoods, engage in healthy debates, ask tough questions, speak truth to power etc. Between extremes runs the Holy Middle-Path, wherein the wise seek to walk.

       @sashafox Yep. In line with 'banning lying speech', especially if it's seditious, and harms society, if I was God-King of America, the first thing I'd do is force Tucker and Alex Jones off the air, and staple Trump's mouth shut. I think America would do well to think long and hard about where to draw the line, and what should, and shouldn't be tolerated...and why, like in civilized nations.
