Article XI translation needs improvement The translation of the caveat here - "except to respond to the abuse of this liberty" - makes little sense. More meaningful translations include "except what is tantamount to the abuse of this liberty" and "but [every citizen] shall be responsible for ... abuses of this freedom".
(Apologies for anonymous editing here. I am not a regular user of Wikisource, but came here because the Wikisource translation is reproduced in Wikipedia.) 2403:6200:8851:33FB:94FB:4886:684C:20E4 02:41, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
