People forget that free speech also includes freedom of association. You can say what you want but others have the freedom to choose not to associate with you because of it.
I don't think they forget it. I think they're hoping everyone else forgets it.
Every right has limits. Discrimination against protected classes is one of those limits.
Name a right you think has no limitation.
I'll find your limits (if you're honest, which, given this is the Internet, is highly doubtful).
Here's a foretaste:
"The pursuit of happiness…"
If my happiness involves making other people miserable, well, either you're a fucking sociopath for supporting it, or there is an intrinsic limit: "…provided you don't interfere with the happiness of others." And with that one safe-seeming limit, we open a can of worms in defining just the word "interfere" there.
Still want to play this game?
Say you didn't read and/or understand the post you're responding to without using those specific words.
I understood what you were saying. It was just 100% unrelated to what I said. Next time respond to what's written before you, not to the voices in your head.
Dude, you clearly either didn't read or didn't understand my example. Come back when the voices in your head stop telling you what I actually said and when you address what's actually written, OK? Until then, take your meds and see your shrink.
