    Although, when hate speech says the hateful things you agree with, I suppose you tend to see it as "free speech".

    How convenient for you!

    Even the First Amendment has limits. Stop defending vile hate speech with a venerable document that never intended to support hate and division. You just come off as an racist ASSHOLE.

    Define "hate speech". Is it any speech that you don't agree with?

    The Supreme Court has ruled that certain categories of speech are excluded from constitutional protection, such as a threat or "fighting words." Sometimes, speech can be both a threat and hate speech, in which case it would not necessarily have First Amendment protection.

    Leave it to you to defend hate speech because you agree with the hateful things being said.

    I'm not talking about threats or "fighting words" whatever that is. I'm talking about Constitutionally-protected speech that others like you deem so-called "hate speech" which is, basically, anything you don't want to hear.

    By most people's definition of "hate speech", it absolutely is free speech. I have every right in the world to call OJ Simpson a nigger. Just as you have every right to call me "fringe Right wing, redneck, old white curmudgeon". What you don't have the right to say are things like "Fry 'm like bacon", "I'd burn down the capitol building", etc.

    Okay Joe, if hate speech isn't free, then I figure you owe me quite a bit of money by now.

    And you haven't even been active that long. Imagine how much he owes the others.

    The problem with the asshole liberals in Berkeley is that they didn't even give Milo a chance to speak. They used Nazi-like tactics to shut him down. Yet, they claim to be the birthplace of free speech. No, free speech is dead in Berkeley thanks to freedom-hating liberals. Is anyone surprised??

    Actually, free speech wasn't born in Berkeley. It is a Creator-endowed right. The Nazi thugs in Berkeley are trying to kill it though.

    It's a sad, shameful day in Berkeley and a huge black eye on Liberty. The freedom-loving citizens of this country will not be silenced, you fucking liberals.
