Do you believe in free speech? I believe in free speech as long as you are not directly insulting someone or causing harm to anyone. But Im wondering why it seems that people who express freedom of speech are being ridiculed and ever arrested for saying what they believe. I think it's ridiculous! Not everyone believe in the same things, and everyone should have the right to say what is on their mind wherever and whenever they want as long as it not hurting anyone!

Its a double standard, what you described. I support free speech though, the problem is plenty of powergrabbers, empty-heads, political correctness people, and others don't regard free speech in the same manner. Free speech is supposed to be freedom of speech and expression. To these people however, its free speech as long as they agree with it! All else is unwanted and will be ridiculed, removed or even worse people may get arrested for it (pay attention States...) The worst thing is some of the populous agrees with some suppression of free speech, and others don't even know what's going on. Those who do not take heed of their leaders and liberties will soon find both completely twisted.
