Free Speech?

For some reason I am jazzed about our Comms 300 class discussions!

Today we had the pleasure of listening to a guest professor, yes I know it is super lame that I don't know his name, but he was an amazing speaker! He led our discussion about "disruptive speech" and it was fascinating!

It helped me realize where the boudary line is that protects our first amendment rights, and how close you can teeter to that line! Some of the things that people have said, especially by a White supremacist used as an example in class, is appalling but still protected by the first amendment's right of free speech. WHY?

if it weren't we wouyldn't be allowed to freely express religious ideas through missionary work, and we wouldn't be allowed to freely challenge governmental ideas( yes they are imperfect sometimes!)

SO yes, OPPOSITION IN ALL THINGS IS NECESSARY however uncomfotable it may be. THE end.
