History

Answer:

  When it has a clear intention of provoking violence.

Explanation:

  Freedom of speech is one of the most important rights a democracy must have to be considered a good one. But this not mean that everyone can say what it wants about others. If you say a lie there will be consequences. The right supports the freedom of a person or a community to articulate their ideas or opinions without fear of retaliation.

  Nevertheless, the importance that this right has for democracy, there are some limitations to it. Particularly when the right enters in conflict with other rights and freedoms. If you give a public speech supporting the murder of a person or community you will be committing a crime and therefore the government would have the power to limit your sayings.

  I hope this answer helps you.

Occasionally, a government sees itself as being justified in limiting what people say in times of emergency, since they think that free speech during such times can harm the country.

What are limitations of Hammurabi's Code as evidence of life in Babylonia
Helen [10]
The Code of Hammurabi can tell us much about ancient Babylonian society, but cannot show us everything.  The law code was written for the audience of Babylonian people in its own day, especially the scribes and officers of the law.  So there are many questions we would have from a distance much later in history that people then would have understood without needing explanation.  The intention of the law code was to inform people of laws and punishments, not to give later generations a full view of the whole of Babylonian life.  The law code was prepared by those in power in the government of Hammurabi -- we don't get any response from the people or indication of how the people then viewed the laws.  And ultimately, the law code is written in a detached, impersonal way -- as legal documents generally are written.  We don't get a feel for the personal lives or feelings of people living at that time in Babylonia.
