		bmelton on July 16, 2014 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Turning College Into a No-Thought Zone I agree that abortion activists can be zealoted at times, but your statement illustrates precisely why restrictions on the first amendment are exempt from value judgements. Stifling the speech of someone you categorize as 'crazy' is exactly why the first amendment exists. If everybody wanted to waste their free speech on how cute puppies were, we wouldn't need it.

what they do is harassment, not protest and they're not crazy , they know they're doing it and intimidating people.

thats why i said the restriction should be anyone who pays tuition. i was just using the abortion activists as an example.
