I agree with free speech, but how can you punish someone for offensive comments, and then let the next go when it's against a different group of people????
i don't know, but i didn't agree with them getting hounded either. do you? apparently you do, as you're up in arms about this lady. if you're not bothered about their comments, but about hers, then you're treating one group differently then others as well.
i don't think anyone should be treated differently, and if you go back thru any other free speech threads on here, you'll see that's true-in my case. how about yours?

saying you agree about free speech, and then saying if some get punished when they exercised their rights, so all should, does not indicate you agree with free speech.
