the problems that attend not wanting to legitimate the westboro asshats by not wanting to pay them any mind recurred for me in the question of whether to participate in this thread or not.
as i understand it, freedom of speech is a block on the criminalization of speech, yes?
so the logic of this ruling would define prohibiting certain types of speech in specific locations is a problem because it's a de facto criminalization of that speech in that specific location.
does this mean that the little chain link cages that police departments quaintly refer to as "free speech zones" are also out the window now?
