Free speech is an ideal. And it is one thing among many, as an ideal. It supposes etiquette for example. In good manners not always forthcoming. It is not the key to everything. For example ending violence. It won't end human violence. So clutching at it as if it is the bed rock of democracy is just a soap box mantra. Empty-headed while reality continues.
