I'm all for personal responsibility for the things you say. And I certainly agree that there are things that if said in certain places or ways you should not be surprised if someone kicks your ass.
But that doesn't mean the ass kicker is off the hook for their actions either. And in that exchange only one of the two people has committed a crime.
I'm can't quite tell if you think I'm endorsing the idea behind hate speech regulations, so I want to be clear that I don't.
