Do you see that leading to a better society?

So, what kind of sentence do you deserve for what you said about supporters of free speech?
The people who felt attacked by someone's public speech would make a complaint about violation of moral rights, and a judge would then analyse the case. I think the punishment would be proportional to the severity of the offense and its reach. No, I don't mean jail nor millionaire restitutions; I mean public apologies and social work.

You seem to think all crimes involve being arrested. If that's the case in your country, I feel very sorry for you.
