Is everyone entitled to an opinion?

Yes... But that doesn't guarantee it's a valid, worthwhile, valuable or legal opinion

Freedom of speech does not infer intelligent speech!

Yes, but I feel some people sometimes go one step further than this, which is where I draw the line. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, however, the moment you start spreading your opinion as a lesson, rather than being upfront about it being merely an opinion... that is where I draw the line. You can state your belief, but please admit that that is only what it is... an opinion, not a fact.

As people we all have opinions. Good or bad, Logical or illogical, Meaningful or meaningles and so on and so on... We all have opinions.
Everyone has an opinion. You can't control that. People should however think hard before they open their mouths, because people can brutalize each other through words.

Nobody is entitled to anything. Everything has been paid for in blood and it's a recurring debt

There are numerous times one wishes it wasn't so...

Yes but doesn't mean that their opinion is right

Respected? No freaking way.

Nowadays it is you can have an opinion just so long as it is the correct one

True but it is what you do with it and how you express it that gets people in trouble.

Yes. Although forcing their opinions on others can prove to be... problematic.
Only if they have the slightest knowledge of the subject matter.

NO, few things dont need any opinion

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but not every opinion deserves to be equally valued. The opinion from a doctor regarding recommended treatment of an advanced cancer stage is more valued than one of a herbalist hippie that took a weekend online course.

You're not entitled to anything, for everything you have, you've been given in the first place.
