While reading the "Statement on Freedom of Speech, Draft January 7, 2010" discussed by the Ryerson Senate, several phrases spring to mind: "Always read the last paragraph," "The devil is in the details," "OMG FML, Rye, WTF?" and "You can't shine shit." Back in the '70s I had a teacher who taught us, "Countries that have 'People's' and 'Republic' in the name are usually neither." With that in mind, the phrase "committed to freedom of thought... it also recognizes there are limits to free speech," which appears in Ryerson's statement, clangs harshly.
