I also agree extreme cases make bad law. That's why I'm disagreeing with the extreme that there are no exceptions to the notion of speech not being violent.

- CamperBob2 4y agoI think we have to be careful not to put words in each others' mouths here. To be clear, I am not saying that specific, credible threats of violence should be treated as "speech" in the First Amendment sense. In my view, the status quo, where most speech is fair game until it rises to the level of coercive threats, is about right.
- robertlagrant 4y agoThings can be bad without being violent. I don't understand this widespread push to try and erase the difference between non-violent bad things and violent bad things.
