And what fantasies would they be?

You just don't like what I said, because it makes perfect sense, and you know I'm right. dear.

You can't win the argument so you just use insults because you have nothing else do you? Typical.

It is scary that people have the attitude and misinformation you have. That is how police states occur.
There are no natural rights, rights have all been invented by humans over thousands of years. They are the result of cultural evolution, and as such always open for changes and updates.

Sorry, but in my view the 1st amendment does not mean you can say anything you want. Unless you are willing to live with the consequences, which might be legal, violent or whatever.
Of course you can tell a guy that you hate his face, but then you'll have to live with his fist in yours

Of course there are natural rights -if someone is trying to kill you, you have a natural right to defend yourself.

It's not a right, it is simply what you do, what every animal does in the jungle, if it can. Animals don't have that right, either. They just defend themselves in order to survive.

Call it a 'natural reaction' if you will.

But speaking as a straight white woman, I myself don't feel as "bombarded" as you seem to do. I find the extremes on both sides to be equally unpleasant and I don't engage. I know a lady who works for the local cab company and she drives around all day with her radio tuned into Rush Limbaugh and his ilk. She seems to live in a constant state of paranoia that I simply don't share when I get into my truck and turn on the classical music station.

Frankly, I live a life far removed from all that crap and I do so deliberately. Why die of self inflicted wounds?

I call it a right, because denying an animal or a person the ability to fight back,would clearly be a wrong.

Then you do NOT believe in the concepts of the founding of the United States, nor the U.S. Constitution.

So, you are promoting VIOLENCE as an acceptable response to a verbal comment? Do you know that if you do that you will be charged with assault, and battery, and other crimes and spend time in jail?

I am perfectly willing to live with any consequences of my speech in a free society. This is not a police state like the Leftists want, yet.

Do we want to live in a society where we tolerate racists and white nationalists marching down the street and preaching their hate?

We know from history how well this turns out.
Denying the right of assembly on pretexts of "security" and "cost" has been abused.

Your last sentence says it all, you disagree with their message so you'd use any loophole you can deny them their rights to express their views. These guys being a-holes is not an excuse to be fascist.

I would have hoped that the era of Jim Crow and the civil rights marches where they'd be denied permits on any number of pretexts would have taught us as Americans not to repeat those same sins.

You don't have to like it; just tolerate it. You know, like those oddball hippie neighbors living down the street. Where it crosses the line is in slandering people, harming careers, and committing physical violence. Try thinking of the behavior as just an aspect of nature you don't want to participate in.
