ACLU lawyer Lee Rowland on Milo Yiannopoulos: "It’s easy to protect speech we agree with, but more important to protect speech we abhor."https://twitter.com/berkitron/status/830130399791689728 …
wow I donate money to you. What a scam. This is the last thing I want to help support. No more from me and I'm telling everyone I know

the
@ACLU defends free speech regardless of who's making it. The Bill of Rights is for everyone, not just folks we like. -
(and I'm in total agreement with you that Milo's speech is abhorrent)
-
this is not freedom of speech you are not entitled to platforms. There's a big difference.
-
agreed, freedom of speech !== Freedom to have listeners. Imagine if Milo did event and no one showed up!
-
(though I don't think ACLU has taken any legal action in this case?)
-
it's time to ask yourself why you're defending the ACLU's support of him (as no free speech law was violated)
-
and deciding to get on my case instead
-
Sorry, no "on casing" was intended, I agree with most of what you've got to say.

Sarah, what if free speech limits were defined and enforced by
@realDonaldTrump? It's the honest question. I am curious. -
that would be freedom of speech and then I would agree. That is not the case here. Which makes it different. Legally & morally
-
Can you please shortly describe the difference? Just a few words to help me understand. Ignore me if you have better todos.

I'm back to hacking but this describes it pretty well :) https://xkcd.com/1357/
