Every time someone restricts speech or any other freedom we all lose at some point in time.
Like the man on the streetcorner yelling at passerby? When a police officer tells him to either shut up.......or else?
After all, his "free speech" rights are clearly being trampled upon.
Visit a nursery school........2 and 3-year-olds are quite adept at practicing the art of free speech.
At the top of their little lungs.
Learning how to curb one's speech is an adult trait.
On the other hand, children that are unable to control themselves require adult supervision.
Many children are well above the age of 18.
