There is a woman called Paula Deen ...she had her show and everything on TV...u know how its a taboo to use the N word for Blacks...well she used it...her show was taken off air...her sponsors pulled off...I mean no one cared for her freedom of speech...and rightfully...because any kind of freedom has to be used responsibly...kissi ki kuchh bhi keh do...that doesn't happen in a civilized world...so its not just india ...its everywhere...



Her sponsors were private entities who had their own freedom to not support her anymore. Same applies to the network.

As for Paula herself, all this didn't happen to her because she just used the N word once (though that is enough to make people turn against you). She was a defendant in a discrimination case filed by a an ex employee of a restaurant she owns or owned with her brother. A slew of stories about her past treatment and behavior towards black people came to light, and at times she excused it by saying that's how they did things in the south. Then there was the controversy of her becoming a spokes person for a diabetes medication while still trying to promote her extremely fat rich food.

She just didn't survive her controversies whereas the idiot patriarch of the Duck Dynasty show survived his after saying things like "Blacks were happier during segregation."

Haven't read all the comments about casting but loved Jamie Dornan as Grey. So much intensity...

All the theaters are pre booked here for the movie, so I am sure there is a beacon of light hiding somewhere, only if you can find in the pile of snow 😆

Isn't it hilarious to see tables turn. But mehh why ain't anyone fighting for freedom of speech here for America. Even you guys need it to spew shit #UnfairPartiality 😒

I love this place!

Salman Khan topic - India sucks! India's law sucks! Letting criminals roam around freely! (<----I do that too)

Sonam Kapoor topic - What a motor mouth! Why do people justify her words as "honesty"?

AIB topic - India sucks! What happened to freedom of expression? How can anyone file charges?

PK protests - India sucks! Why are all these crazies protesting over the movie?

Reality: Any tom, dick and harry in India can file charges.

PK makers did not chicken out over some people going batshit crazy over the movie!
AIB makers are wimps for apologizing & chickened out to pull the video down! If they believed in their own jokes, their vision and their show they should have been... jaa ukhad le jo ukhadna hai!

Dear, we have a politician down south who has made his previous lovers get abortion so many times. Now, suddenly he is the one who is opposing abortion . See, we have our fair share of nut jobs too.😆

Yes few nut jobs are everywhere.

But this is why the Irony is hilarious...
Few nut jobs in America = few nut jobs in America,
While few nut jobs in India = India and Indians.

Art of generalizing has been learned from our fellow Americans only 😉😆

So please, can someone start fighting for America as well and their dooming freedom of speech. I don't want the restrictions to be followed to Canada or how am I going to watch 50 shades 😆
