> It's the part that is the usual culprit for wanting to restrict speech. You mean assholes, insecure in their convictions? I don't know that liberals are any more guilty of wanting to restrict speech than anyone else. I do know that, whenever liberals raise issues of free speech, an awful lot of politically-conservative trolls (on this very board! posting in this very thread!) like to come out of the woodwork and bleat on about how free speech was not violated, after all, since Congress passed no law about it, which is all the 1st amendment to the US constitution mentions. As though any violation of free speech requires a literal act of Congress. So no, despite your hint I'm not totally clear on which part of the political spectrum you're referring to.
