It may happen that two persons try to enforce their human rights against each other, for example, where one person says something to another who takes offence to what is said. In this example the person who made the statement might want to enforce his/her right to freedom of expression (including freedom of speech). The other person who was offended might want to enforce his/her right to dignity. In a situation like this, the courts will have to make a decision on which right will prevail. The courts will have to weigh the right to freedom of expression of the one person to say what s/he wants, against the other person’s right to not have their dignity impaired. Various factors will be taken into account in deciding which right to limit, such as what has been said and to whom it was said, the reason for the statement and whether the statement was made public or not, and so on.
