Shouting down voices you don't agree with is arrogant, counterproductive. My take on the fiasco at Brown last night: http://fir.ee/19bk7AC
@WillatFIRE That's one persuasive objection. Objections based on Kelly's right to free speech are not very persuasive.

@mtracey Forget "right" to free speech; instead, think of applicable principles. In a liberal democracy, heckler's veto must be forbidden. -
@WillatFIRE In most every case I'd agree. In the case of the chief architect of a massive unconstitutional state terror regime, I hesitate. - 4 more replies

@mtracey Just checked out your TL; guess we're in disagreement here. -
@WillatFIRE Also: Kelly has largely evaded public opprobrium for his heinous acts. So the protesters sent an important message. - 1 more reply
