Do you want libel and slander legalized? Do you want me to be able to call your boss and accuse you of pedophilia in order to get you fired, as an example, without any legal recourse? Do you want parents not giving the children they're legally responsible for necessary medical care, putting them in mortal danger because of their religious beliefs?
Even if we leave aside the fact that the framers and the Judiciary have made it perfectly clear from day one that rights aren't 100% absolute, are you prepared to live with the consequences of an absolutist, slippery slope fallacy understanding of rights?
