Malaysian jailed for 10 years for insulting Islam on social media

When you grow up in a culture of free speech, you don't get insulted so easily. Insult is a reflection of damaged pride, which is a useless human emotion anyway.

So you are a commie. You certainly don't live in the US, if that's what you think free speech society are now.

I will believe you if you protest against the racism laws in your country, or the laws to protect holocaust beliefs..

There are no such laws. I'm free to use any word or deny any historical event I want.

Does that mean I do? No.

 

[Ahmet Pasha]

We need such laws for every Beaconhouse educated libturd.

My posts in the Gun Locker thread would prove I am definitely not a communist.

Probably not in the United States, but in various other countries..

And I stand with anyone who says the law is tyrannical, even if I disagree with those who don't believe history.

"I can disagree with what you say, but will fight for your right to say it"

Just different cultures. We are born where we are born.

Can people from the US territories vote?

What is the exact wording Obama and other presidents used to justify not giving the vote to Pacific Islanders? Where did those words come from?

“inhabited by alien races,” “according to Anglo-Saxon principles may for a time be impossible.”

No? Still not American if that's what you think Americans are like currently. Safe spaces was not made in the Commie state of China.

Just wait for the day when denying holocaust will be criminalized in the United States too..

Anyway, if you aren't offended by someone's insulting remarks on your race or beliefs or religion, it is not necessary that others aren't offended too.. Laws are made keeping a majority of population in mind.. not on the basis of individual understanding or behavior.

And if there is a chance that such behavior will create havoc in a society, laws are necessary to prevent this from happening..

Free Speech in the US means you are free from the government punishing for words.

But private entities are free to limit speech. For instance, even if this website was in the US, the owner can ban me for whatever the choose.

One thing I will never do is preach or tell another culture they are wrong. So I respect your view even if I prefer mine.

Cheers.

I don't know what you are talking about. You made 2 points, one there is no racist laws, and two free societies makes people that can handle a statement. Both have been proven false, and yet you tell me what free speech is. How are the two connected.

What do you say to the racist law and the fact free spaces are a thing in the land of the free.

Have no idea what you want me to tell you, but my guess is I am a little more qualified to decide where I live and what the laws are.

Are there racist laws in America?

I don't know what that means, but there are no laws against being racist.

If you assault someone because you are racist, then you go to jail, however.

Nothing to do with free speech or being majority or minority. It's a lot to do with self esteem.

Basically in Malaysia, if you do not disturb the Muslim, they will not bother with you.
I have travel by ourselves even in Indonesia. Just show respect and you will not feel unsafe.
I used to go to North East Malaysia very often for scuba diving. These States are run by Islamic party PAS. No problems ...ever.

10 years is too much, there is no punishment what so ever on anyone insulting Islam and prophet during prophet Muhammad life. In essence Islam practice free speech during prophet Muhammad time and 4 first caliph.
