Let me just clarify, I DON'T believe in complete freedom od speech. I only have a right as long as it doesn't impinge on your rights.
I have no right to incite anyone to murder you, or steal from you.
I have every right to criticise your point of view and your belief system.
Just because I have a right to criticise you doesn't mean to say it's wise to do so.

A Jordanian Muslim woman in Amman poses with a text message received on her mobile phone saying, "If we keep boycotting Danish products until next summer they will lose at least €36 billion."
sammyboy has created a rift on this forum.members who could have been probable friends have now turned foes.there was absolutely no need 2 drag this here on esato.

I dont think its a case as mentioned of this post making people who could have been friends turn into enemies.. Instead its a way for people to get to understand each other better and to discuss things calmly and rationaly leading to better understanding between cultures. |

So why did you make a post whose ONLY purpose is an attempt to offend Danes?

A. Its posted in the mobile phone free forum where one can post interesting topics not necessarily related to mobile phones .. B. As I mentioned it gives people a chance to discuss and hopefully learn and understand making the world a better place. Also gives ordinary people from around the world a chance to talk and learn without Government or Media Propaganda.. But as Human Beings and as Equals regardless of race, politics or religion we are all Human and must learn and grow together |

i didn't start this&it shouldn't have been allowed here on esato imo.my post is not to insult danes but 2 make u guys see where this is leading 2.i feel bad for the danish prime minister,it's not his fault but he has 2 go around apologizing all over the globe.i also feel bad for the danish people.danish tourists r scared 2 declare their country of origin.danish embassies are being shut down overnight.denmark is losing a lot of business/revenue

I bet it REALLY irritates you that some people cherish free speech.

It's leading to you making gratuitously offensive posts.

I feel bad that the Danish PM thinks he has to apologise to a bunch of terrorists.

I keep forgetting you can't take responsibility for your own actions.
