Free speech : Comments

By David Leyonhjelm, published 23/7/2018

Free speech is under threat in Australia. I am trying to do something about it, with four weighty bills to remove unwarranted restrictions on free speech from Commonwealth law.

funny how Bill Shorten thinks its fine for women Labour reps to abuse 20 staff or so even getting them to pick up her dog dung. Hypocrisy at its best.

Runner, good point.
And these are the people and the ethics the loony left believe in.
When will the left learn that labour wants to bring the country down where-as the Right are about building the country up.
Their jealousy and envy blinds them to the fact that we need industrialists to establish the businesses which employs the same people who want to stop them.
I'd like to know where these moronic left think the jobs are coming from if you stop the creation of new companies.
I don't want people like this to be able to use freedom of speech to destroy Australia.
So let's stop them talking crap and just maybe we can start to get back to a positive growth and prosperity again.

//the very thing this topic is about is to combat exactly what you are guilty of//

Exercising my free speech? I'm not sure you've fully grasped the point of the article. Senator Whatshisface is in favour of increased free speech, even if it upsets people not in full possession of their marbles when that fact is remarked upon.

//I don't want people like this to be able to use freedom of speech//

Again, I'm not sure you've fully grasped the point of the article. If you support the Lib Dems because you think they're going to clamp down on freedom of speech, then I'm afraid you're sorely mistaken.

Dear Toni,

You may appreciate this: :)

"Lord, Grant me the serenity to accept stupid people the way they are
Courage to maintain my self-control
And wisdom to know that if I act on it,
I will go to jail ..."

Toni, if I am not explaining myself adequately, I appologise.
I make no excuses.
But I think you know that as I uphold DL and his platform, my meaning should be clear to you, even if my wording is not.
The simple answer is I support DL and what he stands for.
How about you?

Foxy BTW, your continual attempt at trying to get to the moral high ground is not a good look.
At least my comments are relevant to this topic.
Yours rarely are as you insist on making personal observations and character assassinations.
I am provoked to go off topic by those who are of your elk.
When I respond it is to remind them they have 'nodded off at the wheel' and are going to crash and burn against a verbal tree or wall.
Foxy, like most women, you make it hard for us to love you, but we do.
Go figure.

Foxy,
The lord is not needed for this, a mirror will suffice.
