pathology_docThis is the title of a position paper written in part by my LJ friend wemyss. I encourage everyone to read it.
The paper may be found here, and is presented free of charge due to the importance of the subject matter, as stated at the Bapton Books LJ. Also stated there is the following opinion, with which I concur:
‘Free speech, and freedom of the press and of publication as its corollary, to the very outermost limits necessary to an orderly society under law, is an absolute human right possessed of everyone on this spinning globe, and ought to be the basic presumption and fiercely-defended birthright of each of us.’ … ‘There is no “right” not to be offended.’
