What does "absolute" mean in this context?
Nothing trumps it.
Ok.

Give me an example.
Free speech and slander
The right to speech extends up to the point that it substantially affects another's rights. Therefore, slander is not an aspect of free speech.

Then the right of free speech is NOT absolute. It can be regulated.

No.

Consider set theory, if that helps.

Slander is NOT within the set of the right to free speech. It is /outside/ of the right.


BZZT
If that is the case, show me the statute that forbids slander
There is NONE

We are discussing rights; not interested in statutes.

Slander is not an aspect of free speech.


You keep repeating that
But you can NOT support it with either statutes or case law

Expressing slander is as much part of free speech as calling you an idiot
You MAY have recourse AFTER it occurs because it MAY have damaged you
But there is NOTHING that prevents me from exercising my right to express it





Name one thing that is absolute.

Death

Nope. People have been brought back to life.


Not for long
Ultimately we all die


Taxes

Nope. There are plenty of exceptions.

Stupidity

?

Ignorance

?

That's 4


Nope, that's none.


Too bad you can't count
Come back when you've finished grade school
