I recall seeing a quote attributed to Thomas Jefferson, on the subject of free speech. It says something to the effect that the majority has no more right to silence an individual than the individual has to silence the majority.
What is the exact quote, and where can I find it?
Nothing? Not even an idea? Anybody? Anybody? Jefferson. Anybody? Free speech. Anybody?
Um… I’ll take a stab at it:
[sup]first innaugural address, March 4, 1801[/sup]
That it? That’s the only one I can find from Jefferson that comes close…
