I believe and support that.
What I don't support is intentionally disrupting life and business just so
you're heard.
It's like making ad hominem attacks in a debate. You take away attention
from your argument and instead get people to focus only on your personal
attacks.
Freedom of speech is misunderstood. You have the right to say whatever you
want, but I don't have a *duty* to listen.
