Ricky Gervais on 60 Minutes Makes a Crystal-Clear Case for Free Speech
He put it perfectly: the great thing about freedom of speech is that I can say what I want, and you can say you're offended, and I get to decide whether I care or not.
Because let's be honest, there's nothing you can say that someone, somewhere won't find offensive.
That's why blasphemy laws are so absurd, they're basically trying to protect an all-powerful deity from having its feelings hurt.
At the end of the day, we should be free to criticise any idea.
Just because you're offended doesn't automatically mean you're right.
Spot on, Ricky. Free speech isn't about never upsetting anyone, it's about the right to speak anyway.
Dear @ManCity
My name is Nneoma, a proud Chelsea fan, writing on behalf of Chelsea supporters, the blue cartel, and all reasonable football lovers worldwide.
I’m here to beg you and also warn you that under no circumstances must you drop a single point from now until the end of the season.
Chelsea travel to the Emirates this Sunday to face Arsenal, and I want to assure you that they will not be taking all three points from that game.
Should it come to it, we would gladly sacrifice three points at Stamford Bridge for you and risk the top four rather than witness Arsenal lifting the league title.
Watching Arsenal fans cry is sweeter than Chelsea making the top four.
Do not drop a single point until May. Not one. Not even by mistake. Don’t try it.
This is bigger than rivalry. This is about public sanity.
You are the only ones who can save football from the unbearable noise pollution that would erupt from North London should the unthinkable happen.
You are the last line of defense between football peace and unbearable North London noise pollution.
The ball is in your half.
Yours sincerely,
A concerned and slightly dramatic Chelsea fan, in anti-noise solidarity.
Thank you 💙
@RealJamesWoods@RobSchneider What is astounding to me is 85% of voters support voter ID and the house and senate can barely scrape up enough votes to pass it, it's extremely disappointing!
@NFL_DovKleiman Any mid level defense with a half decent line because you will probably never see Mendozas name on the back of his jersey because he'll be on his back the whole game. Fix the O-line!
