In this day and age, a microscopic scrutiny of the Government
will show us we are only a deemed democratic nation and not one in
actuality. If we truly had the rights that are listed in our
supreme Constitution, there wouldn't be any journalists and
writers who fear for their lives simply because they have the
tendency to express their opinions freely.
It's a slippery slope when it comes to deciding what can be
published, what is ignorant, what is moral, what is vulgar and what
is obscene. Something that offends one person may not offend the
other and vice versa. It would be a waste of time and resources for
the courts to be preoccupied with matters that may hurt
someone's sentiments. Opinions must be encouraged and sought
after, they must be welcomed even if the views oppose each other,
healthy discussion is essential, and a person must be free to make
art or literature in any form that they choose, without worrying
about what someone else may think.
