Those were dangerous in general sense to the establishment's position of power. The type of speech being argued against here is immediately dangerous to the physical person of specific groups. That distinction is important I believe.

I doubt that DanielBMarkham's comment meant that kind of speech. To clarify:

If I say that homosexuality is morally wrong and a sin against God, is that "immediately dangerous to the physical person of specific groups"? Does the answer depend on the existence of at least one person deranged enough to take my statement as a call to violence?

If I say that the police are murdering black people in the streets, is that "immediately dangerous to the physical person of specific groups"? If so, is the group black people, or the police?

How was the argument of legalization of homosexual relations a danger to the establishment's position of power?
