Having heard the experiences of my family, who came from an oppressive country, I absolutely appreciate the importance of real freedom of speech and choice. Of course, at extreme ends of the spectrum, we start encountering problems, but the institution of censorship very frequently starts a terrible snowball effect. It takes some real gall to not fall into that exceptionally common trap.
