Maintain the Freedom of Speech of all Westboro Baptist Church members regardless of how reprehensible their message is

Created by F.V. on February 03, 2013

Mr. President:
The US Constitution guarantees all citizens the right of Freedom of Speech. This right can not be revoked under any circumstance regardless of how lewd or inappropriate the actions of the concerned party are. The overwhelming majority of Americans (including myself) are sickened by Westboro Baptist Church's actions. However we should send a message to all Americans and the world that our rights are not fair weather rights, but permanent and unalienable. Striping church members of their rights is like taking the rights of all Americans as it demonstrates that it is the government that decides at what point an advocacy group becomes a hate group. Do not let the action of a few limit the rights of many.
Sincerely,
an American
