Why do you think free speech is good for the humankind, overally? There are many issues with it too, just like there is with true democracy. Most countries in the world aren't even democracy, they're republic, just for the reason that true democracy would make things worse. For example, majority would really trump on some minority and would likely even attempt to make law to kill them.
Seems like you're leading the parade of assholes into 2012.
Lets just take the suffering of millions of people and throw in a Steve Jobs joke just because you don't like the guy (or Apple). You're not funny, just makes you another asshole the world really could do without.
