My freedom may end where yours begins,
not stepping on others toes too much :)

When it comes to 'freedom of speech', well,
I don't need to listen to all FUD - and I will only selectively reply.
In the end, those who simply believe a one sided argument w/o further
investigation will fall, follow their depicted leader.
This is not my problem, and I cannot cure the world :)

Sometimes I get in the mood of
  'I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take this anymore!'

  (^^ for your chuckles and deep reflection)
then I post my viewpoint and conclusions <http://jausoft.com/blog/>.

You are doing a great job defending your views and the situation, Julien.
However, is this really necessary? Is your intended audience even reading?
IMHO, respectful people judge you by your actions.
Here in the JogAmp forum, IRC etc, we all know you as a very supportive friend.

“If you believe in freedom of speech, you believe in freedom of speech
for views you don't like. Goebbels was in favor of freedom of speech
for views he liked. So was Stalin. If you're in favor of freedom of speech,
that means you're in favor of freedom of speech precisely for views you despise.”
―Noam Chomsky

Warm greetings & thank you Julien and all other participants.

~Sven
