'Freedom of speech is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear'

People are going on at me like I'm defending his actions, I'm not but true free speech isn't all pretty and the idea within this topic that free speech is only okay as long as it doesn't offend anyone is ridiculous, that's not free speech and it always shocks me in these topics how quickly people are willing to throw away their rights so easily.

Freedom of speech isn't all sugar and rainbows but the societies that practice it benefit from it hugely. If we're so willing to throw it away to punish some moron with the brainpower of an amoeba then I'm not looking forward to what comes next. As I said before cases like this are a very slippery slope.
