Protesting because you don't think someone should be heard is a protest AGAINST free speech. The protestors that were linked in the article were also NOT peaceful. I stand by my statement and against your made up facts.Livin the dream

To avoid editing my above post, I will add some clarification here. The proper way to engage someone that has ideas that are ridiculous, is to not engage them at all. You can't argue with an idiot. OTOH, if the idiot has somehow persuaded non-idiots that his/her ideas are worthy, then rather than protesting them, an open discussion should be had. That promotes the exchange of ideas. Protesting someone is just trying to shout over them. My kids do this when fighting over toys. Guess what...it doesn't solve anything.Livin the dream

Thankfully, today's students have the right to protect their piers from scary ideas! I'd hate to think that students would be forced to listen to someone with thoughts that didn't support their core beliefs.Livin the dream

But I am generalizing that a majority of these protestors are ignorant, as they don't understand what they are protesting, a portion are violent, a majority are socialists, some are just there to pick up chicks, a majority have never tried to rationalize what they really believe and form an opinion of their own.
And Im still waiting for a liberal to tell me what the United States would look like if they got everything they ever wanted."When life hands you lemons, make lemonade." Better have some sugar and water too, or else your lemonade will suck!

Through the early 19th century, most states passed rights for women to own property even when married. Most of these laws were passe without protests being the key driver.Livin the dream
