http://blog.psychlinks.ca/misguided-protectors-of-freedom-of-speech-the-next-chapter/ Occasional commentary on psychology, psychiatry, mental health, the internet, and life by an Ottawa psychologist Wed, 03 Mar 2010 23:43:46 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 http://blog.psychlinks.ca/misguided-protectors-of-freedom-of-speech-the-next-chapter/comment-page-1/#comment-24878 Sara Thu, 12 Mar 2009 07:23:34 +0000 http://blog.psychlinks.ca/misguided-protectors-of-freedom-of-speech-the-next-chapter/#comment-24878 I believe one problem is than many do not understand what Freedom is. Freedom is not a license to do whatever you want, no matter who is affected. Freedom comes with a moral responsibility. Yes, be and express the truth of who you are, as long as others are not hurt by it. Hopefully, they will be uplifted by those who honestly express their truth. What some people claim as freedom is really exploitation and manipulation. There is a REAL difference between the two. The manipulators are the ones crying "foul." And if you haven't figured that out yet, then you have been manipulated. Real Freedom allows everyone to soar, not just the users and takers in society.

The Australian governments proposal does virtually nothing to protect children from abuse. I suggest that you research the issue at hand a little closer.
