These days the media is full of imaginary fears about threat to freedom of expression.It is full of stories about journalists and writers facing persecution and intimidation.
Freedom of expression has to be tempered with a concern for feelings of fellow citizens.A self-righteous and a moralising attitude can mean 'big bucks' but does not foster amity and goodwill.
Every individual is entitled to his views and is bound to protest if attacked.Dialogue,public debate and education can create an inclusive atmosphere rather than criticism and ridicule.
