Look if youre too thick to understand it Shinigami just say so instead of trying to look tough. Regardless of where you live freedom of speech is and will be nonexistant. Governments will always control the media in a way. What if CNN suddenly turned nazi, you think no one would do anything about it? You'd have a manifest of 'freedom of speech' right there.

ARGUMENT FROM CREATION, a.k.a. ARGUMENT FROM PERSONAL INCREDULITY (I)
(1) If evolution is false, then creationism is true, and therefore God exists.
(2) Evolution can't be true, since I lack the mental capacity to understand it; moreover, to accept its truth would cause me to be uncomfortable.
(3) Therefore, God exists.

Oh, I'm the one trying to be tough? Right, then. What I'm not too thick to understand, asshole, is that we will never have complete freedom of speech. However, we need to keep a certain level of it - a man shouldn't be allowed to scream racial epithets in public, for example, but he should have every right to calmly voice that he does not like other races. Of course the government controls the media, they control half of what we fucking hear from the media already. Christ, half of America is owned by three or four fucking people. Doesn't mean we need to sit here while they take away our Constitutional rights.

And by writing that post you just agreed with me on the matter that complete freedom of speech is non-existant. Good show :p
