Alinea 39 Hoge Raad 17 oktober 2006

Een alinea uit Hoge Raad 17 oktober 2006, ECLI:NL:HR:2006:AX5765.

Freedom of expression constitutes one of the essential foundations of a democratic society and one of the basic conditions for its progress and each individual's self-fulfilment. Subject to paragraph 2 of Article 10, it is applicable not only to "information" or "ideas" that are favourably received or regarded as inoffensive or as a matter of indif-ference, but also to those that offend, shock or disturb. As set forth in Article 10 § 2, this freedom is subject to exceptions, which must, however, be construed strictly and the need for any restrictions must be established convincingly(). There is little scope under Article 10 § 2 of the Convention for restrictions on political speech or on debate on questions of public interest;"
