Free speech means you can say racist, sexist, and homophobic garbage. It doesn’t mean people have to accept it.

Calling Black pilots unsafe, calling MLK awful, saying gay people are a disease, or calling for violence isn’t ‘just opinion.’ It’s hate.

Opinions are ‘I prefer tea over coffee.’ What they’re defending is racism, bigotry, and incitement.

Free to say it? Sure.
Free from criticism or consequence? Absolutely not.

Anyone defending that type of “opinion” is what they’re defending. Simple really.
