So do you believe that those consequences are in any way right or justified? Not for "Fire" in a theater but for political speech?

By the way, do you consider Kansas University religious studies professor's "tirades against Christian fundamentalists" as political speech? I don't. Slander perhaps, hate speech perhaps, but not political speech. There's nothing political about it. What if his tirades advocated the extermination of all Jews, etc.? Is that political speech? What makes political speech different than any other speech? Just wondering.

Hate speech? Hate speech? Since when do conservatives believe in "hate speech"?

That tells me all I need to know.
