Do you believe in complete freedom of speech? Would you want all speech to be uncensored; whether hate speech, protesting, verbal profanities, defamation of name...

Where do you think the line should be drawn? Why?

Complete freedom of speech, yes. To set a precedent of censorship, so will it become acceptable to all.

I support speech freedom, you can say what you want although that might include some insults occasionally, but at the same time it has to establish some limits with insults, you can offend someone directly but not to his/her family, friends, etc.
