AMANDA Martin is quite right in saying that Freedom of Speech only exists if we have the right to offend.
I am aware that many of my opinions may offend (for example) those who hold strong religious views, but I feel no need to apologise for them. I would defend their right to express their convictions, without sharing them.
That’s what democracy is about.
