In that case Buff would you care to address any of the points I made?

And another thing whilst you are so steadfastly promoting freedom of speech. How do you deal with those annoying passengers who are evoking their right to free speech during your safety demonstration? Do you tell them that they need to stop talking and pay attention as they are putting other lives at risk? Of course you do.

But wait a minute. You're Magic Buff, that freedom of speech martry, surely you don't mean to be so hypocritical, I can speak whenever and about whatever I choose can't I? So again I refer you to this, in the hope that repetition will lead to understanding.

In practice, the right to freedom of speech is not absolute in any country and the right is commonly subject to limitations, such as on "hate speech". This is because exercising freedom of speech always takes place within a context of competing values.

And another, another thing. Hypothetically, because I don't really know. If I were to publicly accuse you of being a pompous, uneducated, egotistical, pencil dick then I assume that you would:

A) Smile and carry on,
B) Smile and carry on,
C) Smile and carry on,
D) Ignore me.

On the other hand, you may:

A) Defend your reputation and deny the allegations,
B) Offer an alternative view,
C) Remove me, the accuser,
D) Remove yourself.

Answers on a postcard.
