RE: Uncle Ralph: “Free speech includes not only the inoffensive but the irritating, the contentious, the eccentric, the heretical, the unwelcome and the provocative provided it does not tend to provoke violence. Freedom only to speak inoffensively is not worth having.”
Anyone familiar with British jurisprudence care to take a shot at sorting this out?”
Uncle Ralph, I have to inform you that the British jurisprudence (and not the only Western one, for that matter) has lately incorporated in its discharge many philosophical elements distilled by the minds of Stalin, Pol Pot, Amin Dada, Bokassa and Mugabe. You still can question this issue – yet when retrieving your body your family will have to reimburse the government for the bullets used on you to clarify the matter.
