Hey, you're preaching to the choir. Freedom of speech doesn't apply only to speech I agree with. I loathe anyone who tries to trample on our constitutional rights, particularly freedom of expression.
But, the difference is freedom of expression is protected in our Bill of Rights. While fuck head politicians sometimes pass law infringing on these rights, a Federal district court or the Supreme Court ends up repealing the law.
Can you imagine America banning the word "French" from the English language? Hmmmm.....maybe that's a bad analogy. lol
