If you want to talk about democracy; the rule of law is to accept those that you might hate and be able to criticize them without creating a war to reverse opposed and conflicting thoughts... 

Roger Scruton will have a very hard time to find anyone in the Middle East thinking along his peaceful train of thought.

We do know that most of the citizens go by emotional and choleric outburst, revengeful mentality and act to these condition with crushing and violent deeds.

Roger Scruton well done!

I'm listening to this genius, and thinking how little we know when it comes to freedom of speech and democracy!

Roger Scruton also gave us a preview what will happen, what we see now, but did anyone listen? 

That Brit makes sense, but who's listening here?

Thanks  - I was looking for a good author to listen too and get to read a  good book about human behaviour!

Have fun, as long as you can bend your mind around all the wise pun!

Just say democracy at those that do not want it, a war starts...

One really got to have good-ears to listen to this man talk!!

Amazing responses and thank you for posting more interesting links to amazing philosophical lectures and comments to reflect on!
