My husband is a card-carrying, dues-paying member of the ACLU and we've talked about this a lot. The ACLU supports free speech, period, meaning they'd support both examples of what you mentioned above (as far as I know, anyway). That's one of the tough subjects for me. I seem to be growing more conservative as I get older. I guess, personally, I believe that there are some groups (see NAZIs, etc) who shouldn't be allowed free speech.

However, I"m aware that that's hypocritical. I own that.

Of course, I write slash and RPF; I'm aware that it can be seen as offensive. I also go to great lengths to separate that from my Real Life.

Regarding your last question. I would rather live with the ability for free speech. Period.
