Free speech is a common value, we all claim to share.
It’s when two express an opinion, in a way that to both is fair.
But ‘oft in the heat of the moment, with different opinions expressed,
one shouts down all the others, and acts extremely distressed.
No mystery it can happen, it’s something slackers are taught.
The lazy comfort of slogans avoids the discomfort of thought.
