Then where is the line drawn and who draws the line?  I served my country to defend (among other things) the right to free speech.  Even if they are dicks.  All one has to do is walk away, change the channel, turn the computer off, etc..

Exactly. I've written online on plenty of occasions that the best thanks I could get for my service would be for the other to exercise their rights vigorously, even in causes I oppose.

Hell, yeah! Of all the rights we have, I think freedom of speech is the most important. I'd rather there be an army Fred Phelp's spouting their bile than mess with free speech. We can deal with that as long as we have our own voice. If we're silenced though, I don't think any of our other rights and freedoms would matter much. We certainly wouldn't be in a position to keep them for long.
