Free Speech on Facebook?

In the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, it states that:

“Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.”

There's always an issue with free speech, especially since facebook is a social networking site, where people of all ages, races and religion are present.

Recently, the buzz(1,2,3,4) is on the "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day" facebook page and group. Basically, Muslims, especially in Pakistan, are outraged about the group and that facebook allowed it on its site. Hence, there were many protests which eventually led to the banning of facebook in Pakistan.

This is a view of a Muslim, and a non-Muslim against the idea.

Regarding this, i find that it is a difficult battle of ideas seeing that it involves religion. There should be more tolerance though, since the creators of South Park didn't mean for it to be insulting even though they really shouldn't go too far with making jokes of religion. The threats are too extreme. However, the creator of the group wasn't being sensitive either, as he did it in an act of defiance, to protest against the threats made towards South Park's creators. Everything has limits. We can say what we want, but we need to be more understanding of one another to avoid possible conflict.

Heres an article on hate speech to think about.
