I only have a few thoughts. First off, the thread title is a slippery slope fallacy:
Quote:
When 'rights' are 'reasonably restricted', you begin to lose them eventually.
That's simply not true. Most if not all rights have had reasonable restrictions from day one, and today many still remain in place. It *can* lead to a loss, but not necessarily. To make such a statement is a gross oversimplification and massive exaggeration. It's also black and white thinking. Either a right is total and absolute (which is a theoretical state) or there is no right?

Also, I believe we already have a thread about "free speech zones".
