As obnoxious as this is, CJ Roberts is dead on to right. We cannot compromise freedom of speech. I just hope that he will remember that when we have an opportunity to test the constitutionality of “hate speech” statutes.

Yes. Its easy to defend speech that you agree with but its difficult to defend vile or obnoxious speech. As much as I despise the Westboro Baptist Church they have the right to stand 1000 feet down the road and say anything they want. Either you have free speech or you don’t. There is no happy medium. I also include hate speech in this.
