People should have freedom of speech, but not the freedom to harass.  The racists I mentioned were harassing people.  Nonetheless, some harassment is free speech, while other stuff, like burning crosses on their property or dumping leaflets on their lawn (They did drop the leaflets.) is rightfully illegal.


Some stuff the racists were doing included burning crosses in their own yard and flying white supremacist flags to terrorize the family when they drove by, as there was only one major road from the family's home to town.


However, should people have the right to "legally harass"?  That's a debatable topic and I might have to come against free speech.


Also note that when the shoe was on the other foot, blacks could not legally or illegally harass whites under Jim Crow.
