Freedom of speech means being able to say what you like about the things that matter to you. Like Noam Chomsky says, if you want free speech, then you have to accept that you will hear things you don't want to hear. You could say that people have a responsibility to be nice to other people, but the forum is an example of how often that doesn't happen. It's better to have free speech and have a point argued out rather than prohibit it. I don't always agree with Lyle, but so much better to have him free to say what he likes than not be allowed to. It's important to talk about militant feminism, race, political correctness, and sociopathic politicians.
