Free speech means you are willing to have every two-bit disgusting, hateful, anti-Western (or Holocaust denier) nutcase spew their garbage in public and in print, up to the point where they directly incite or encourage violence, libel or threaten someone.
It means that this "imam" in Australia has a right to send vile letters to the mourning soldier's because he is a citizen, and no matter how offensive the content-that he cannot and should not be stopped unless he is breaking the law-perhaps venturing into stalking territory.
And it means that if you don't want to hear voices like his, in your downtown square, or in your own mailbox with a local postage stamp, you better damn well figure out a way to keep him and his kind out of your country.
