tejek, you are missing the whole point of freedom. Absolute freedom is not a God given right and absolute freedom is not a legistlated right in our country either. Your freedoms should exist only insofar as it doesn't impinge on the freedoms of others. The minute your actions start to harm others, that is when your actions pass from the realm of freedom and into the realm of antisocial behavior. Freedoms exist to help a society grow, as well as the invidivuals within them. Freedoms DO NOT exist to tear a society apart and allow an individual to destroy their own health, spiritual or otherwise.

Therefore, limiting free speech by banning hate speech intended to incite violence is completely within the intent of our constitution, and within the moral bounds of any liberal society.
