First Amendment
Should any and all hateful and outrageous speech be protected under the first amendment? The Supreme Court recently heard a case testing the outer limits of free speech and the damage it can cause individuals. Are some kinds of speech more protected than others?...

While I totally agree with your defense of free speech, I can't agree with you on defining free speech as an individual getting into your face and calling you an oppressive slur. The line has to be drawn somewhere. When someone gets in your face, or defaces your property with oppressive slurs, then that is no longer free speech-it's a physical threat! If anyone got in my face and called me a "nigger," then I would most certainly have the right to at least mace them! If I found out that someone called my child a "nigger," or a "fag" or "bitch," then that individual would have to make it a habit of looking over their shoulder. Sorry, but that's how I feel.
Other than that, another excellent show!
