Half-free Is Never Freedom – To Whom It May Concern by shaf: 3:17am On Aug 20, 2014
“If freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.” ― George Washington


I wish to have titled this piece ‘In Defence of John Danfulani’, but I understand that the gentleman in question had filed a lawsuit in the Industrial Court and I have no intention of tampering or pre-empting a judicial proceeding. Therefore, my piece is more of an advice to anyone or any organ of government that wish to be used to intimidate any citizen into silence by fiddling with his or her basic right to free speech. The freedom of speech is an absolute state to fully express thoughts and there is no such thing as being half-free; it is either you are free or not free.
