Free speech means the government can't put you in jail for saying shit. It doesn't mean that, since we have free speech, anyone who tells you you're being an -ist douche should shut up and take your abuse. Free speech is not a god to be worshiped above all else, nor is it a free pass out of common decency.

Moreover, if people like her have free speech, SO DO THE PEOPLE CRITICIZING HER. Trying to silence them in the name of "free speech" is just -- ARGH.
