The Twitter Blackout: Tweeters protest by refusing to tweet -Freedom of Speech - 0 views

  •  
    While many are protesting Twitter's new censorship attempt, they are not seeing that it will actually help preserve freedom of speech in the US rather than censor it. The only countries that would be held to the certain censorships are ones that request it per religious, historical, or cultural reasons. So, freedom of speech on Twitter will be opened up in the US rather than restricted by the international growth.

    Everyday books are being banned from school because a particular parent did not like a topic in the book or a certain word. In this case the article discusses an 11th grade class reading the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and a mother called up demanding they stop reading it because she did not want her son reading the "N" word. At what point where do we draw the line at censorship in school and just let the kids learn?
