am I free to disagree?,p.In the US you are...given the previous posts about getting arrested over a church sermon I'm not so sure about in the UK. You might want to check with the Minister that deals with disagreements.

(Not the abuse minister...the argument minsiter...make sure you get the right room. /grin)

That post was hypothetical. But if you see my post 55, the Philly 5 may have something to say on the matter of freedom of speech in the US.

Forgot the ; )

Actually the church sermon point is andectotal at best. the there is the earlier counterblast on the evangelizing Christians being arrested at the gay event (wasn't it Philly?)

I just find the "Im freer than you" argument hysterical - The tv license is merely an additional tax. What should be celebrated is that in both our countries we have the freedom to criticise the incumbent regime. In those countries which are genuinely unfree, you get locked up for it.

Still wanna have my beer in the park though
