The difficult part is I am not convinced anything someone says can violate someone else's right to exist. In the past the solution was to focus on promoting personal mental health, someone who commits bodily harm as a result of something someone else said likely has personal issues that need to be dealt with. People need to realize that other people's opinions should not translate into self harm. The only time I can really understand the need for punishment is when looking at situations like Depp vs Amber, where companies and individuals are prejudice against you because of unsubstantiated claims.
