Free speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences. In fact, the founders felt quite the opposite. The point of free speech is so that ideas are challenged openly and vigorously, and that popular ideas endure, and unpopular ideas are discarded.

Right, as it's applied to the law. Just speaking of being a decent person in society. Conservatives don't want it public, not because we're ashamed of it or because it's unpopular, but because liberals are vicious. We have to work and live with you in society, but liberals are vicious and over the top. As this post is proof of.
