  1. AS A EUROPEAN all I see is students expressing their first amendment rights to protest which is free speech. "Free Speech" does not mean you have thr right to have people LISTEN, it means you can say what you want and the government won't stop you or lock you up for it.

  2. Free speech isn't the right to have an audience. It's the right to say what you want and not be locked up by the government whereas protest is a free speech.

  3.  @dickjones8119  You are literally not mentally capable of having this conversation, as you just do not understand your own constitution. This has nothing to do with me, or my opinions on any subject. This is a First Amendment issue. A perennial tragedy of most Americans is you are generally clueless about your own constitution.

  7.  @lauralishes1  HAHAHAHAHHAHAH QUOTE " These people are saying "they shouldn't have the right to speak"" YES and that is their RIGHT under your constitution to say that. They have the RIGHT to call for these people to be silenced and SORRY, but they have a constitutional right to call for that and to protest to get that. Freedom of speech is freedom of speech, and I'm sorry, but calling for another person to be silenced, is just exercising your freedom of speech, no matter how hypocritical it might be. Let's be realistic hypocrisy is the foundation upon which the right when is built. " ridiculous statements like there's no such thing as biological sex " No one is saying that - you dont know the difference between sex and gender "Seriously I'm not even a conservative," but you are arent you? Maybe not a foaming at the mouth rabies infected MAGA but you no ones Marxest, you are to the right of the political spectrum. THE PROBLEM WITH AMERICA is for all your endless banging on about the freedom of speech, almost none of you actually understand the fundamentals of freedom of speech. Freedom of speech is the right to say a thing, and not be stopped, or imprisoned by the government for saying, with limited exceptions for the direct incitement to violence or endangerment.

  9.  @glennleatherwood4552  1) we are not talking about tolerance - we are talking about the 1st Amendment. 2) I think its ok to shout down fascists 3) why does an intolerant bigoted person deserve tolerance? 4) why don't you f-uk off with your bullsh!t argument? You want tolerance to be shown towards your intolerance? And if it's not, you're the victim. F-uk off just f-uk right off.

  10.  @Anubisdream1  That what it looks like to me. I mean yes, protesters are annoying, that's kind of the point of protesting. Winston Churchill was regularly protested and heckled, had to leave many venues as he could not speak, and then said THIS is what we are fighting the Nazis for - the freedom to voice decent.

  11. ​ @tensor_verkampen  - Yeah sounds awfully like the "well-trained Malitia" argument - the right wing just makes up sh!t to suit their belief system. You DO NOT have the right to listen. You DO have the right to protest and the right to not be locked up and THAT is the end of your rights. You want to listen to a fascist in peace - go to a fascist rally.

  12. Protest is free-speech. Demanding that you've been listening to is not free speech. It's whining by crybaby right wingers.
