I have a serious issue with the term 'Freedom of Speech'. Does it mean that one can say or write anything he/she feels like without thinking of its adverse repurcursions? Probably it is situation dependent so lets take one. What freedom of speech r u talking about in case of Mumbai blast? Is hate mail an expression of freedom of speech? Certainly not. But can you expect someone admiring 9-11 terrorists or indian parliament attackers? If one does this than his head is not on his shoulders. Its nothing but an inhumane act if someone kills people or supports them who kill people and talks about freedom of speech. To me freedom of speeach comes with a rider called 'Responsibility'. One needs to ask oneself why I need to say this or write this? Am I hurting people "at large"? Is there any vested interest? Am I hurting my nations interests? if yes then it isn't freedom of speech. The Govt has the right to stop this nonsense and i support the ban. Thanks and please pray for those who got killed in the Mumbai blast
