Free speech is free speech regardless of content. We have it worked into our constitution.

We seem to make exceptions for college campuses though. Thinking Besides, it's nice of these "kind" folks to self identify so we know who to look out for.

Free speech and freedom of association is restricted in our constitution regarding fascism and nazism, between democracy and the law, the law prevailed, since we lived in a fascist state for more or less 60 years no one wants to take chances. Same goes for racism and racist associations. In this particular case it's best to take the safe side and let authority prevail over liberty for society's good.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
