Thank you. I thought so. I find it hard to tolerate the truly intolerant- the Aryan right comes to mind- but it is only through making myself realize that their speech is the test, that I truly test my belief in freedom. I don't test it much by thinking people with whom I agree should have free speech. I don't even test my belief in freedom much by thinking that people whom I disagree with, but not viscerally, have a right to speak. It is EASY to see that they have the right to have their opinions, and to speak about those opinions. The only hard cases, are the cases that make the whole thing meaningful. IMO
