For if Men are to be precluded from offering their sentiments on a matter , which may involve the most serious and alarming consequences that can invite the consideration of mankind . Reason is of no use to us . The freedom of speech may be taken away , and , dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep , to the slaughter .
