There is no constitutional protection from being "offended". Hate speech laws are unconstitutional because they presuppose an action from a thought. They are the ultimate end state to political correctness. Those who should be condemning such laws, the liberals in law and academia, instead sell out to what is tantamount to a popular fad. Offensive speech is not yelling fire in a crowded theater. It can be an incitement to riot under certain circumstances but an offended person who resorts to violence is still committing battery and subject to appropriate laws.

Thoughtcrime doubleplus ungood.
