Hate speech is not protected speech.

I changed my language. My intent was not to portray the action as being supported or condoned.

Would "permissible" be a better choice?

What’s the point of warrants if they’re boo longer needed?

If you give the police permission to conduct a search, they do not need a warrant.

I appreciate you're trying to keep people honest.

This is what is in the article:

On december[sic] 5th, for over five hours, lawmakers grilled the presidents of elite universities in a congressional hearing about antisemitism on college campuses. In one of the testiest exchanges a Republican congresswoman, Elise Stefanik, asked whether “calling for the genocide of Jews” violates university rules. It is “context-dependent”, replied Liz Magill, the president of the University of Pennsylvania. Clips of the exchange went viral on X, formerly Twitter. Yad Vashem, a Holocaust museum and research centre, issued a condemnation and stressed the importance of “raising awareness about the history of antisemitism and the Holocaust”.

I'm not sure what you think I am misrepresenting.

In what context is calling for genocide ~~acceptable~~ allowable?

Williams, who is expected to face a tough reelection, was under fire after a student journalist posted a video of the lawmaker confronting Michael Gordon, one of the two former staffers, outside of a holiday party.

In the video, Williams gets up in Gordon's face as he tells him, "You fuck with my family, I'll end every relationship that you have. Every single friend. Do you understand me?"

Is it possible the alleged threats precipitated that incident?
