The power of words is undeniable. To give total freedom of speech is a hell of a risk

Personally, I would say that it should be fine to limit someone who, for instance, was trying to start an insurrection or a riot

You could not POSSIBLY stop people talking about how they think their government is crap. Whatever system you use, there will always be a lot of people doing that

I do think that a lot of limitations go too far, though. There have been a number of issues which people can no longer discuss just because others thought it distasteful. I vehemently disagree with that kind of limitation
