I dont understand how we are allowed to have freedom of speech, but at the same time we are not allowed to speak negative of a president.A friend of mine at school jokingly made the statement if hillary clinton was president he would either kill himself or be the first to come after her.Now knowing that is his right to speak because of his freedom of speech,but, at the same time how can you have freedom of speech that can effect someone else not of important status such as the kkk says kill any body different or the neo-nazi's wanted to kill blacks,jews,etc.Now a black panther can say the extermination of the entire white race,however,let somebody say anything of someone holding power and its on...seeing as there was a black panther on cnn saying he was out to exterminate the white race,but someone makes a jokingly comment an are kicked out of school an sent to jail....
