In practice, the right to freedom of speech is not absolute in any country, although the degree of freedom varies greatly.

hiya blod............FIRST OFF STOP THE RAMBLING AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS DIFFERENT THEN IN LONDON, WITH THAT BEING SAID, I COULD SAY YOU'RE FAT AND UGLY, AND THEN DEFEND THAT WITH FREEDOM OF SPEECH CRAP! GET OFF YOU RIGHTOUSNESS AND I STILL DON'T LIKE THEM PERIOD, FOR THEIR MOUTH COMMENTS IN GENERAL, SO NOT POLITICAL NOW. THE END DONE FINISHED. THE PROBLEM IS WHEN YOU SHOUT FREEDOM OF SPEECH, COMING BACK TWO YEAR'S LATE, THE CHICKS AND THROWING THAT CRAP IN OUR FACES AGAIN IS PURE ARROGANCE, WE HAVE CLASS WE JUST THINK THAT EVERY ACTION HAS A REACTION AND A CONSEQUENCE, THEY REAP WHAT THEY SOW!

I will just never buy their music again, the same as I do not watch anything with Jane Fonda in it, which is my right.

icdou007, that comment about freedom of speech is one of the silliest and weakest comments I've ever heard on this issue-and their have been many.
YOU MAKE NO SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have read the comments here and felt I needed to make a comment as well.


I am a SGT in the US Army. I have been in and out of the military since 1979. I have served 8 yrs with the Navy Seals, a few years with Combat Air Assault and most recently I have spent the past 4 yrs with USASOC. It seems that everytime Uncle Sam needs people I tend to get in line. Which is ok because my rich Uncle has sent me on many vacations to several different countries.

I believe what the Dixie Chicks did was wrong. Not in the fact that they said something negative about our President but in the way it was done. The comment(s) they made were said in another country. And this country just happened to be a country that history shows should be a weather vane considering how much they go with the way the wind blows.

As an American Soldier I felt betrayed. It was the same thing with Hanoi Jane years ago. We had men who were being held at the Hanoi Hilton as POW's and yet she showed up on the other side of the fence making comments that should never have been made. When she was handed little bits of paper (that the guards didn't know about) the POW's gave her to give to the US Government so their families could be contacted she turned around and handed them to the NVA Commander in charge. She literaly turned her back on the American POW's "because she felt she had the right to her opinions and to express them as she seemed fit".

The Chicks, while no POW's were involved, basicly did the same thing. They were in another country expressing how they felt about our President and policies that were being handled at the time.

If I were one of the concert goers I would have demanded my money back for the simple fact I came to hear a concert not to hear political noise.

Since this incident I have wondered what would have happened if they had made the same comments on a stage in Texas, or any other state for that matter. I wonder how the people that came to see the concert would have responded?

As Americans the Constitution gives us certain rights. The first one being freedom of speech. As a soldier I fight, and if it should happen would die, to protect those freedoms.

They had the right to state the way they felt about things and I would never argue against that point. As I said, I just think they went about it the wrong way.

I believe it was Voltaire who said "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it".

As a soldier and an American I believe this completely and totally and I will defend to the death their right to say what they wish.

I will just never buy their music again, the same as I do not watch anything with Jane Fonda in it, which is my right.

Dissent isn't a right, in this country. It's your duty--if you disagree with the government.

I agree with the person that said "FREE SPEECH" which one of us has NEVER made a mistake and said something wrong? We should forgive and try to be like Christ.
