You know old man, I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one.
I'm a "name-caller".
I'm an asshole on many occasions.
I also enjoy the freedom of free expression.
I'll curb my tongue when I'm speaking to my boss, my wife, my mother. (My mom would still smack me if I said a swear and she's in her 80's)
But in the arena of politics and societal norms, the gloves come off.
Free speech was written into the Bill of Rights NOT to protect nice speech, polite speech, censored speech.
It was written to protect hate speech, offensive, speech, ugly speech.
