Many self-described free speech advocates here also draw the line at inciting violence.

our justice system isn't built on prevention, for pre-cognition, thought-crimes, or any malfeasance really, because that's the road to any of a slew of nasty -isms (totalitarianism, authoritarianism, etc.). justice is served after a wrong, not before it. that's intentional.

we prevent crime by being good to each other and expecting the best, not trying to force behaviors and ways of thinking. it's actually amazing that we are so good to each other--everyday there are probably millions of opportunities for strangers to kill or maim each other, and they blow right past that opportunity every time. it's awe-inspiring, really.

the first step is to stop being fearful.
