Free speech is vital to all Americans. And the test is when you despise what is being said. The limits to free speech, decided in various Supreme Court Cases are:

"incitement, defamation, fraud, obscenity, child pornography, fighting words, and threats."

Everything else is allowed.

As a Jew living in the American diaspora (and vitally interested in a safe and secure Jewish homeland), I am more concerned with upholding free speech than I am with hateful, anti-Semitic rhetoric on college campuses.

Pretty sure I said this here before: most people do not have principles; rather, they have in-group loyalties.

A government that bases rights on race is apartheid. One that bases it on religion is a theocracy. Both are, in all cases, bad.
