Wouldn't the counter arguement be that why should someone have keep quiet just because someone else is having a private event nearby?Quote:

Disagree. There's no "one at a time" stipulation, or any rule of priority in the Constitution. People are free to talk over one another if they wish.Quote:

Somebody should get all the homos from San Fran, Austin, and Key West and have a giant flamer parade whereever this weird Baptist group is located.

You're going to hell, thank god for dead soldiers isn't hate speech and or objectionable? If they are saying it's good these soldiers are dead because there are gays in America, that has got to some kind of hate speech.Quote:

Yes. They disrupted and psychologically tormented the people at the funeral.Quote:

Did you change your mind about that?
It would all be different had the dead Marine's father been a diminutive, black Harvard professor.

I am vast, I contain multitudes. I support many things against these guys. And if the law won't provide it, hopefully lawlessness will....because the law is clearly failing in it's purpose here.Quote:

Yes, but don't we have to acknowledge that "freedom to speak" does not unequivocably mean "freedom to speak wherever and whenever I want"? For exmaple, I certainly support your right to say whatever you want, but if you decide you want to exercise your right on my private property I don't view it as an infringement on your freedom of speech if I decide I want to have you removed from my property. In that sense I think you have to admit that WC does kinda have a point.Quote:
