Re: Mind's Eye Re: Is free speech free?

As far as I can tell, right to be heard applies in courtrooms, consumer issues, and labor unions. Not sure what you mean about this facilitator. Does everyone in the group have a right to be heard? What inhibits the right to be heard? How would someone know if they were not heard? Is the mandate to respond to every voice implied?

right to be heard is an interesting notion

Part of the problem, (if in fact there is a problem), is that people tend to confuse free speech with the "right to be heard".

The right to remain silent is also a part of free speech as is visual speech such as art or cartoons.

In human history free speech is a very new attribute of society, heck we once thought we were being invaded by Martians not too long ago.
