I am not a religious person. However, I do hold one thing sacred: Freedom of Speech. While there are a lot of things that I would like to say about the subject, far better people than I, have explained it far better than I ever could.

"Free speech is life itself." Salman Rushdie

"Though I disagree with everything you say, I will defend to the death your right to say it." generally misattributed to Voltaire

"If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter." George Washington

"If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all." Noam Chomsky

And my favorite quote that goes beyond freedom of speech to the very freedom of thought.

"I am opposed to any form of tyranny over the mind of man."
Thomas Jefferson

  • I was thinking about you!

    How you doin, good seeing your humor is ripe!

    Funny!

  • @Fusionartist202 Yeah, it's been a while. This isn't my usual video, but I'm passionate about free speech.

    I haven't been playing music much recently. That's why I hadn't made any new videos. I'm just too busy.

  • in terms of free speech, this is about on the level of Orange Man marches

  • @KentAllard I don't know what you mean by Orange Man. Can you explain?

  • I... uh... I thought you weren't allowed to have any visual representation of Muhammed. I thought that was part of the religion. I don't think it's oppression.

  • The annotations are priceless!

  • Ironic, that George Carlin should look like jesus.

  • I swear when you typed in George Carlin the picture suddenly had an expression of empathy and humor.

  • @laservius The Orange parades are a yearly event in Northern Ireland, when the British Protestants rub it in the occupied Irish Catholics faces that they partitioned their country, by having a Victory march through the heart of the IRA territory. This provocation is done under the guise of Freedom of Expression of Religion.

    There will never be a lasting peace in N Ireland while these marches continue, and the Irish response is used as an excuse to clamp down even harder on TRUE freedoms.

  • Let me give you an example of the corruption caused by images of prophets. Leonado daVinci was commissioned to paint Christ for the Vatican. He used his uncle as a model.

    The result? Most Christians today believe Jesus was a blue eyed blond, giving birth to:- the KKK, used to justify the Transatlantic slave trade, Nazi eugenics atrocities, the Holocaust, ad infinitum. Every day an innocence child bleeds because of that picture, raped for breeding!

    Is all this what you are defending,Laservius?

  • Laservirus, Did you bother to find out why an injunction exists against making images of Mohamed before posting this inane video?

    It exists is as a bulwark against a Cult of Personality forming. This is so you don't end up with loads of little sects each claiming that only they know the TRUE Mohamed, as you get around Jesus for example. Corrupt little suicide sects, pervert sects, racist sects, child sacrifice sects, etc. Believers could Instead just focus on the uncorrupted word, united. pto
