Exactly!

How can people scream "Freedom of Speech for ALL" but then when someone says something offense it's "Freedom of Speech for ALL...certain rules and restrictions apply".

There are folks out there whose opinions I just cannot agree with, but if they aren't causing me any harm other than being unpleasant to my ears, then let them say what they want.

If someone says "I hate Black people" okay, whatever. But if someone says "I hate Black people" and proceeds to shoot every Black person they see then Houston, We Have a Problem.
