jeez, all I wanted to do was complain about the rain (which &^%&@#^$%!! did not even happen so my whole schedule is messed up)
I am not advocating throttling free speech (I was in college in Turkey in the '70s, I know what real lack of free speech looks like)
HOWEVER when it comes to "rights" there is a juvenile understanding in some that rights extend forever.
"Your right to swing your arm leaves off where my right not to have my nose struck begins” apparently attributed to John B. Finch who was of all things the Chairman of the Prohibition National Committee so apparently he REALLY did not understand the concept.
