>Speech is violence. Why do you believe that "the communication or expression of thoughts in spoken words" is "injury by or as if by distortion, infringement, or profanation"? Speech is violence. Speech is calm. Speech is war. Speech is peace. Speech is restrictive. Speech is freeing. Speech is hate. Speech is love. I could go on, but the point is that speech is a tool like any other. We don't allow tools to be used to injure another, and we also don't allow people to provoke an attack and then claim they're the injured party. We also don't hold a tool to someone's body and prevent them from using their own tools, because that's called "oppressive power".
