        No, just because one disagrees with another point of view, should not invalidate that persons right to express those views

        Hate crime and slander both indicate the limits to free speech. You can't just say whatever you want.

        Free speech grants you the right to say anything you want, but it does not grant you immunity from people's reaction to what you say

        Establishing slavery? What about the Roman Empire for an example? I think they established it way before

        People understand this very well. That's why there's an effort to change it and resist groups that would promote the continuation of it.

        Agree. Which is wrong, but only exacerbated by the administration'a failure to distance themselves from groups that espouse such ideologies.
