--- Quote from: Lincoln on March 30, 2004, 07:43:23 PM ---There's 95% gonna be a law that bans anything which talks bad about homosexuals, and apparently the angry talks I make at school could lead to a suspension, and eventually expulsion, and religious leaders who condemn homosexuality will likely be thrown in jail. And, to stack on, since both the Bible & The Qu'ran condemn homosexuality they will be removed from lots of places. I'm thinking that those Bibles in hotels will be removed, and as will the 2 Bibles and the Qu'ran in my school's library.
Anyone have any thoughts on this? I find it disgusting that I can't even express my opinion for fear of being expelled. This is suppossed to be a free country. Like Jamil Al Amin said, "They say you have freedom of speech but you can't yell 'FIRE!' in a movie theater."

Jamil Al Amin doesn't understand "freedom". You *Do* have freedom to CHOOSE to yell "Fire" in a movie theatre, but there will be repurcussions. You have freedom to *Choose*. Think about that, maybe you'll get smarter. Maybe not.

Yea, and in Cuba you have the freedom to kill someone, but there are consequences you know?...In any country you have the freedom to do anything you want, but there are always consequences...
MANBEARPIG.:
Lincoln I dont think you understand that if you say you hate fags in school people will be offended ,people like you cry free speech when they do something absurd thats bullshit. Just like Trauma and Sccit said above you have the right to choose but there are always repercussions.

Anyways, my 1 sentence answer to your post is "That's what you get for living in fucking canada"

Actually, I think that's the point he was trying to make. Freedom of speech should mean you can say what you without repercussions, but obviously it does.
And yeah, I'm tired of Canada. If the Conservative party wins the next election, they'll make sure this law doesn't stick. If Liberals win again, I'm leaving Canada when I finish College.
