Free speech doesn't cover fraud, defamation, and libel - all of which are already illegal.

So basically what you're saying is, impersonating people is wrong, but it's ok when we don't like the person/group being impersonated.

Do you have principles, or is your morality purely based on convenience?

The second, of course.

Just like how its legal to shoot terrorists, but not Americans. All morality is based on drawing tribal lines, and BP isn't in my tribe.

It's legal to shoot American terrorists if they're in the act.
