    Freedom of expression doesn’t mean free from consequences.

    It only means you can’t be arrested for what you say.

        Yeah, actually. They did. Consequences don’t always come from those in the right. Sometimes they come from fanatics and deviants. Consequences and justice are not synonyms.

        You can provide protections from certain unsavory consequences, but those protections will never be perfect. Sometimes terrible things happen to people for expressing themselves. That doesn’t mean they didn’t have the inalienable right to express themselves in the first place.

            You seem to be conflating two different issues. You may want to consider just how much mixing of philosophies you’ve been doing. It’s probably led to a lot of frustration and anger in your life.
