Here's one of the better speeches on the topic by Christopher Hitchens. I realize he's a polarizing figure, and says some things in this speech that many here won't like, but if you have 20 minutes you might find it worth watching.

No problem. If you can follow his tangents and references, the whole thing really comes together and is extremely powerful. One of the best orators of our time, and a free-speech absolutist, perhaps the only kind of absolutist I like.

Chris Hitchens was a great speaker, and a good author to boot. Thanks for posting this a0.
