Free Speech

The right to be heard does not automatically involve

the right to be taken seriously

We clearly take for granted so much that is sacred, and nothing is more sacred than freedom of speech. But just because you’re allowed to shoot off your mouth on any street corner, doesn’t mean we must respect what you’re saying. You have to earn that right. Freedom of speech may be an entitlement … to be taken seriously is not.

Self-Evaluation

What criteria do you use to take someone seriously?

What criteria do you use to stop listening?
