For those of you in the US, if you don't think you have freedom of speech, if you think you are persecuted for what you say, maybe you should try speaking your opinion in say...Iran, or China...you might lose a body part. Maybe then you'll appreciate your freedom here. Obviously, you don't know what real persecution is. And for those of you who already recognize your freedom, and I can tell some of you do, I totally agree. The US isn't perfect, but this is a great place to live.

If your talking about USA. Yes its great. People dont realize how horrible some places are. They have no clue that 250,000 people are in reeducation camps in China. Or that Gays get killed in Saudi Arabia. The list is huge. We are an Island. Even Democratic countries like Poland limit free speech. I would die to protect this country and the freedoms we hold dear. I find it sad how many people from this country hate it. I lived abroad they all should try it for a year or two.

i wont count on it . try expressing your opinions in full on here and you will find you are not able too
continue in your effort to express your opinion and should it in anyway support and notion that a minority person is not just wonderful and you end up in jail for the promotion of hate crime.
this i believe will happen even though i don't hate.

You're so right, we are so blessed. Freedom should never be taken for granted. Happy New Year!

that country does not exist yet.
honestly express your opinions on more extreme matters to an unreceptive audience anywhere and chances are u'd be lucky to just lose teeth.

Why do you assume that every one on Q&A's is from that country that your talking about?
Which country is it anyway?
