But he shoudl totally give a shit what you think, right Min?
@lrh9- I can't say I would shut this down, no. Speaking out against what he is saying is less an act of condemning him, and mroe an act of showing where I stand as opposed to him. Signifying that I am not liek him and that he does not represent me is entirely in the interest of my cause, but it does nothing to stop him from propogating his.
Similarly, if someone moved to shut his event down, I would have to speak out against their actions as well. He must be allowed to speak or he is not free. And it ain't aAmerica if it ain't free.
