Unfortunately, yes.

Nazis have the right to march in Skokie IL. Freedom of speech, you know.

Veterans have the right to express their anger if I were to deface the flag. Heck, I'd *expect* it of them if I were stupid enough to do it. But they do NOT have the right to try to confiscate my property.

People have a right to unpopular opinions. That's where Freedom of Speech gets it's true test. Not in the opinions we all agree upon - but on the ones we DON'T.

When flag-burning was "all the rage" and people wanted to pass laws against it they claimed how shocked our forefathers would be at such behavior. I pointed out that, had they thought of it, they probably would have DONE it. Remember, we had a revolution against the most powerful, most progressive and most advanced empire in the world at that time. British subjects had more rights than just about anyone else in the world - which is what confounded so many back in Europe...
