Actually, from a constitutional standpoint Colonist is WRONG.
People should perhaps read the thing before they start spouting "Constitution".
Sure, we have Freedom of Speech, and Expression; but both "Freedoms" are conditional. For Example, there are these little things called "Fighting Words" not covered by the Freedom of Speech. Also, as far as Freedom of Expression, it was directly tied to religion in the Constitution, as it stands now it covers assembly etc. Also, in order to us a "Freedom of Expression" argument one must present a case in which his/her Expression did not infringe on another person's rights. Seeing as this little incident did indeed infringe and alienate, it is punishable.
Again, they can and will be punished. You don't like it too darn bad.
