Hate speech is not protected speech

I hate this line. What is the point of free speech if not to protect unpopular speech?

I think little Starr Amey flunked civics class. Literal real life actual Nazis - uniforms, regalia and all - have marched in the streets of Skokie, Il, ripe full of Holocaust survivors. Fred Phelps and his ilk have protested at the funerals of fallen soldiers, as well. Their message might be distasteful, probably outright outrageous and hurtful, but there is absolutely not one thing the government can do to stop them, or these students, from making gestures, holding signs or marching around like idiots. I'm 100% sure from the look of the photo that this was just a dumb joke by a bunch of dumb kids, anyway.

I'd rather see dumshits like Starr Amey get punished for stupid speech than have these kids get in trouble for their dumb stunt. She needs to return whatever diploma(s) she has in her possession and start over.

Starr Amey is an airhead, "actually".


What- does she think only polite speech needs protection?


I think it's a good bet these kids don't know much about Nazi Germany past what they've learned in video games, otherwise they wouldn't make light of it.

But if we start prosecuting over crap like this, we will become a real prison nation.

Tell the hyper-sensitive to talk a walk.
