articles response:free speech

I believe speech should be free as long as it's not completely offensive. In the one article I was reading it discussed obscene photographs and the exhibit was shut down. I'm not exactly sure how I feel about that. I think maybe it should come with a warning on the exhibit but not shut down entirely.

Also, with the statues free speech is important but work in public space shows the values of the society. So, having a racist statue probably is not the best thing to display publicly. In those cases they should be taken down.

I believe in free speech but I think everyone forgets freedom of speech comes with freedom of consequences.  

As in the Trump example, technically he can say anything but what he says can cause people not to resect him.
