I am the most vocal proponent of freedom of speech you will ever meet. I would never deny anyone the right to speak their mind. I would never deny Mr. Prutschi the right to say what he has to say.

But this freedom of expression extends to myself as well. And while Mr. Prutschi has every right to state his views, I have every right to tell him how wrong he is and what an SOB he is. The reason I call him an SOB is because he is trying to stop others from speaking. He does not allow debate or dissent. If someone disagrees with him, he cries out with accusations of racism and tries to frighten them into silence. That cannot be allowed.

If someone wants Mr. Prutschi to give a talk, or Ariel Sharon, or the leaders of the settlers, or anyone, I don't have any problem with it at all. But that means the other side has to shut up if we call on people who have different views to speak their minds. Freedom of expression is for everyone, especially your worst enemy, otherwise it is worth nothing at all.
