gollark: Solution: protest and/or riot from home?
gollark: There's a difference between what people think is *legal* and what people think is *ethical*.
gollark: Then you should obviously arrest or whatever *those specific people*.
gollark: I don't agree with even non-governmental nazi-punching.
gollark: Actual meaningful "freedom of speech" also does mean freedom from *some* consequences - at the very least freedom from the government doing things to you.
