its only when you do something REALLY evil - like showing Muhammad on southpark - that freedom of speech seems to run out.  |
That's a network doing the censoring, not the government. Just because people have a right to say what they want does not mean a private media company has to show it. Please show one instance of someone in the US being arrested and charged with showing a depiction of Muhammad. Otherwise it is not a free speech issue, it's a network being overly sensitive issue. I agree that it should not have been censored, but you are grossly misrepresenting the situation.
