Freedom is not absolute. Offending someone else is an abuse of freedom.

[Daphne – And in a free country, David, you are free to offend others. That is the true litmus test of just how free a country is.]

It’s only a ceasefire – hostilities to be furthered immediately.

Anyone who tried, including Napoleon, all lost miserably. You are battling against an insular mentality.

Unless the whole of the Maltese are subjected to military conscription of a minimum 5 years to any European EU member state, they are not going to understand what you mean.

Just because you and these people share an uncharitable sentiment towards a departed soul it doesn’t mean that either of you is right.

[Daphne – Do please stop seeing life in religious terms, Reuben. It is so tiresome. This is not about whether the sentiment is wrong or right, but about its free expression.]
