re: #381 GunstarGreen

I happen to think King is an asshole and possibly a nutbar, but. I must ask, and I mean this completely seriously — honest question — do you believe that King should be imprisoned, fined, or otherwise legally punished for saying that?

He should be punished within the free marketplace of ideas— by other people mocking him, deriding him, making his words public, refusing to vote for him.

In other words, others can express their contrary opinions and their opinions of him, all protected by the First Amendment.
