So your crusade has ended then ? ?
If it isn't illegal, I can't do much to stop it...freedom of speech and all that...  :(

Curse the Second Amendment (in the U.S) and the (way way better, btw) Fundamental Freedoms given by Section 2 in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms!  :P... Or maybe we should curse the Constitution act that introduced it...

You heard me, the Canadian Charter of Rights of Freedoms actually gives Canadians "freer" speech then Americans. HAHAHA!... Although I think the notwithstanding clause added with the Kitchen Accord might make them more or less even.
I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

With freedom of speech there is also responsibility.
By law, there are some things you are not allowed to say.
You can not incite a riot.
You can not give military secrets to the enemy.
An attorney can not divulge the confidential information of a client.
And even Medical Doctors can not share some medical information without onset of the patient.
If you hack into he school computer and give out the test answers you will be held countable.
In the Army a gay can not tell everybody about his *censored* nature.

The list goes on...

This is just from Wikipedia, and obviously there are REAL limitations to this:

Quote
the First Amendment to the United States Constitution makes the entire country an unrestricted free speech zone.[42]
However,
Quote
The Department of Homeland Security "has even gone so far as to tell local police departments to regard critics of the War on Terrorism as potential terrorists  themselves."
