Freedom of speech

December 27, 2012Dear Sir,The letter on December 27 from Graham Faiella concerning comments on your website from lesser intellects than himself must not go without criticism.I am afraid he has set himself up as a member of the "freedom of expression, but ..." lobby. He tells us 'they' have the same rights, but do not have the absolute right to say whatever they want; then they do not have the same rights. He further gives his opinion that he is not a big fan of censorship but wants your forum 'disinfected'; if that is not censoring I do not know what is. Finally he probably considers his designation of us Neanderthal mortals as acerbic and merely offensive. From where I stand, by his standards, I could consider it an abuse of his freedom of speech and in serious need of disinfecting. But I don't. Mr Editor please keep up the gribble.DEVONSHIRE BERMUDIAN
