Did Congress make a law, Dave? No? Then STFU and worry about something important. Free speech doesn’t mean there are no consequences for your actions.

When there are laws being passed, then we should worry...

oh, wait, there ARE laws being discussed/passed against “hate speech” or “hate crimes” if the offended party is minority, Islamic, or homo.

Now all they have to do, once the precedent is set, all they have to do is change the definition of “hate speech” to “criticizing the government”.

That's the point that many, left and right, don't get. A guarantee of Free Speech doesn't guarantee freedom from repercussion................
