Thank you so much for offering to teach the rest of us what free speech is and how it should be viewed and implemented.

Because there are people right here in this country who actually think that free speech should be limitless and consequence free!! Can you believe that? There are actually people in the United States who think that if your method of exercising freedom of speech could reasonably be expected to cause others to violently riot, you should face no consequences. They believe that freedom of speech is more important than the right to life. Your service would be SO valuable!! It would teach people that grown ups understand that while they might have the right to free speech and can say whatever they want, if their speech endangers another they may face consequences.

Thanks again!
