The problem is that these jihadist types were raised on it. No amount of mental health treatment can change that. It's hard to take it simply as a madman shouting nonsense on a corner, when like people are actually bombing marathons, raping and massacring Christian groups, and so on and so forth. Whether or not the people making these speeches are the very same people acting on it, people ARE acting on it. This should not be protected speech, in my personal view. I must therefore concede that there really should be (albeit very specific) limitations to freedom of speech.
Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!
