Since everyone seems to be missing the point.

 

Freedom of speech is not freedom of repercussions. If you spew racist misogynist BS, you will find people protesting your views. Violence obviously is not the answer.

The guy speaking is a flaming gay guy with black boyfriends. He also has very conservative views  I think the problem is the snow flakes can't process it

Free speech does not apply in SJW land.

 

   Free speech always applies, however, as my friends on the right often say, while free speech may be protected, the consequences of free speech are not.

He never got to speak, stuck in a snow drift.

Poor lark. I hope he has better weather next time.  Although I did some generous people trying to warm the weather with bottle rockets.

ever notice its the people who demand freedom of expression and speech that go haywire when a dissenting opinion is heard  

  I noticed something like that in the Kaepernick threads. However that level of hypocrisy is the standard fare from the right nowadays.

Don't confuse our realization that something is constitutionally protected with our personal disdain and contempt for it. I didn't see any of us rioting violently, however.

  I won't if you don't. However to the people who said he should lose his job, or should get beat up etc., I think that went beyond disdain. A person can't advocate violence while being against it. 

 

   I do recall Mark Perry posting a picture of his conservative buddies ready to bust heads if any protesters showed up at a Trump rally. Violence is not partisan. It exists across the political spectrum.

Knock off the bickering immediately and permanently, in this and other threads.  You two know who you are.

Another example of the left's intolerance.  Of course there are examples of intolerance from the right, but the left has always claimed the high ground when it comes to being tolerant.  I guess that only applies to those that think and speak the same as them.

Well I definitely didn't think he should get beat up. Nor do I think "busting heads" is a solution to anything. The unwillingness to talk and listen to the other side is on both sides in many ways, but I can't say I recall hearing about as many alt. left speeches canceled due to violence in recent years as I have alt right. I have an issue with that.
