OP appears to need a more nuanced approach to free speech. Below is a good place to start. I would be surprised if OP's country has as developed a tradition of free speech. Just cause we don't show boobs or say fu*k on tv doesn't mean we don't have freedom of specch. E.g., more leanient liable laws in the UK, not allowed to wear head scarves in France, etc. Swearing on TV is not the alpha and omega of free speech.

Hard to blame him. Most of these foreign types are pretty new to civil liberties. How can you expect them to really have a grasp on what's important? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
