And who's getting to decide whether what i am saying is 'specifically designed to denigrate others'??
That's something i have tried asking some of my liberal acquaintances, and never have gotten a coherent answer..
Just like often when i ask some of those i know who are atheist "well if you don't believe in god, why then do a # of your ilk Try to stop OTHERS from revering him in a public setting? Why in many cases does merely seeing/hearing his name mentioned get those other athiest's panties in a bunch?"

GF, how then is that "Honoring MY right to speak freely if you are shouting me down to where no one hears me??"
Where does it say anyone has to "honour" your right to free speech?
The 1st amendment gives you the right to speak, not the right to be heard or have an audience.
It is a -very- important distinction.
Now, having said that, -should- people honour your right to free speech and be heard?
Sure, that's how you get dialogue like this, and a lack of coherent dialogue is what leads to such massive partisan splits, people concentrate on what they disagree on, rather than what they have in common.
I'm curious, -what- have you asked your liberal friends, and -how- did you ask them?
THen isn't That making THEIR right override her's?
Especially when what they are doing is outright Threatening her and anyone else who shows up with PHYSICAL violence?
It almost sounds like you are saying "IF what you want to say we disagree with, WE have the right to shout you down so YOU can't even speak"..

I specifically pointed out that they were not.
Sorry, but how is that in any way shape or form honoring OUR right to free speech? ITS as me and annoyed have been trying to get across, its almost like you say only you have the right to free speech..
There's quite a few black people i would have had no problem with being in the white house, i just couldn't stand THAT black person! (obama that is)..
