If freedom of speech is absolute, how come it's not applied for private spaces and for the Internet?

And much, much more.

Threats of violence

If you’re wondering why free speech doesn’t apply to the internet, it’s because you have no right to use other people’s stuff for free.

My cantankerous beagle is very badly behaved at the dog park and always starts barking at the other dogs. Would pepper spray be an effective method to correct his inappropriate behavior?

Insurrection

You have freedom to travel. If I loan you my car, I can tell you not to take it out of town, because it’s mine, you have no right to use it, and if I give you permission to use it I can tell you what you can and can’t do with it.

Child pornography

What melts your heart every time without fail?

Freedom of speech does not apply to:

Conspiracy

False advertising

Are Americans really as uneducated and ignorant as portrayed in the media?

HIPAA violations

Trade secrets

Revealing classified information

Liberals, why don't you like Conservatives?

Perjury

No freedom is absolute.

Fraud

Why do some people enjoy being dominated?

That’s what it is. You have no right to use other people’s stuff. If people let you use their stuff, they can tell you how you can use it, and they can tell you to stop using it any time they want.

Terroristic threats

You have freedom of speech. If I loan you my computer, I can tell you not to use it for certain things, because it’s mine, you have no right to use it, and if I give you permission to use it I can tell you what you can and can’t do with it.

Hi, I’m Jo. My best friend died 2 years ago today. My husband died 6 months later. So, I’m a depressed mess (we were married 28 years) and can’t shake it. Even my Brother is worried. Some days I don’t do anything, and avoid men cause I don’t want to date. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.
