I think people are taking the "Freedom of Speech" issue a little too far at times. I think the concept can be better described as "Freedom of
Opinion, and Expression Thereof", rather than "Freedom of Speech". Literally going the "Speech" route will paint you into corners with the old argument of yelling "Fire!" in a packed theatre. That is clearly not an expression of opinion, and not what's intended by the concept. I think "Freedom of Opinion" is more fitting and apt.
