Kids making horribly ugly and violent my space pages about the Prez. Columbia students rushing the stage to silence people, because they have decided the speech had "no place in the debate." Christians apologized for on Katie Couric.

respect has lost its value completely. It's been replaced with a strange willingness to compromise. That's why there's so many delinquent kids out there coz there's so many parents, teachers and people willing to strike deals with them instead of giving real discipline. I say down with the compromise, it's time for some real discipline. Free speech in itself has its limits. It's free up to the point where it becomes personal. It involves the freedom to say whatever one likes, yes, but only to the point where noone gets hurt. People might take it a little too literally, avoiding some issues completely, but I have to say, yes, free speech cannot survive in a society that does not value and uphold respect.

Free speech has been attacked violently by the Bush Administration. If you speak against their failed war in Iraq, you are supporting terrorists. What ever happened to questioning authority?

The liberals are intolerant of any perspective but their own. Free speech can survive without respect, but free speech in the US will not survive under liberal control...

Is "free" speech required to entertain respect? Free is self descriptive, respect is earned.
