Free speech sometimes does offend

Unlike Others, U.S. Defends Freedom to Offend in Speech

Excerpt:

A couple of years ago, a Canadian magazine published an article arguing that the rise of Islam threatened Western values. The article’s tone was mocking and biting, but it said nothing that conservative magazines and blogs in the United States do not say every day without fear of legal reprisal.

Things are different [there]. The magazine is on trial.


Comment: Freedom of speech and religious freedom go hand in hand.

I changed the "here" to a "there" because the Byline location is Canada!
