Freedom of speech goes both ways. Freedom from your fellow citizens reaction to your speech is not A right. Inciting violence or using same as a reaction is against the law and yes that also applies to everyone. The government shall not… is quite different from the government allows… The founders were not perfect but they were extraordinary. The goal was to create a “…more perfect union…” Every 4th of July I give pause and remember Benjamin Frankiln’s answer to the eager crowd when asked what kind of government do they give us. “A Republic, if you can keep it.” I pay my respects to all who have created, amended and devoted their efforts in service to our Democracy which is in the form of a Constitutional Republic. May we have the wisdom to keep it.
