Freedom isn't always easy. Think about it, it's nothing to support freedom of speech when the expression is something you agree with, the real challenge lies in being able to support those same rights for those you despise...and it isn't always easy but I don't see how the right could survive otherwise.
I don't really like slippery slope arguments either but I do think it applies to some extent here. If we support outlawing controversial expressions how can we then complain and demand our rights be supported when the political winds shift and suddenly our own ideologies are controversial and unpopular?
