No, freedom of speech is limited by common sense. Remember that post a few years back where someone posted "kill the president"? That was freedom of speech. Remember the person getting on a plane who said he had a bomb as a joke? That was freedom of speech. As I said. There are gay pride parades in Tel Aviv, which is freedom of speech. Going out of your way to have one in an orthodox neighborhood is also freedom of speech but it's provocation as well. Of course everyone is up in arms because the orthodox are protesting while the Muslims have said straight out that there would be violence and there was great pains taken to avoid Muslim neighborhoods. Isn't freedom of speech free in a Muslim neighborhood or is it just a smart move to avoid those who have stated straight out that there would be violence. "Oh, it's the Jews being violent and burning trash. Screw them" "Oh, it's the Muslims being violent. avoid them" There's a larger picture here and the focus being only on the orthodox betrays the ignorance of the whole story going on.
