(琼花按: 美国Yahoo报道了中国网络上转载的中共老干部要求扩大言论自由的公开信。一位叫Jay的网民这样评论,很有意思,也很中肯[请看以下英文原文]。请不要误会,本人并不反对言论自由,但世上没有绝对的言论自由;言论自由会受到制度、文化、宗教、利益集团及国家利益的制约。)

a "total" freedom of speech, that's impossible. Not even in the United States allows such as thing. You don't know what it means?? well, in the US, the freedom of speech can fall into categories like threatening, terrorism, racists, violations, privacy, copy rights, top secretes, company policies .... if you talk about any of the topics above, you can ended up in jail or a lawsuit. That in the US. Of course, in other countries they have their own definition of Freedom of Speech and there are "laws" to protect this information. So what is the deal. No one is perfect!!!
