    Brit here. “Free Speech” doesn’t mean the same here as it does in the US. We are happy to throw racists, extremist preachers and armchair rioters in jail if they incite violence, spew hatred or radicalise the vulnerable.

    We tolerate different views and values, cultures and creeds. But we draw the line at being an absolute fucking prick.

    The only ones calling for “free speech” are the ones who want to abuse it.
