the difficulty with shades of gray wrt to free speech is that what is intolerable is a matter of opinion and I don't trust ANYONE to make that decision for me.

free speech must be absolute, so yes, in this case it is black and white, sorry you don't see it that way.

Certainly, a lot of people want to live in a censored world, as long as they agree with the censors.
because... they can't handle being offended? are people really that delicate?
