    But a person in so doing must be prepared to respect the rights and
    well being of others or in infringing upon them, be prepared to pay
    duely for it if suffering is endured by others and so we have laws
    that define libel, defamation, official secrecy acts, etc, that might
    seem to be at odds with "freedom of speech" but in essence, aim to
    uphold what it is there for in the first place - to make life better
    and easier for all.
