I understand what you're saying. But say someone was to do you physical harm? Would you just let that person hurt you? Or would you use the minimum amount of force necessary to preserve your life?

This man used his voice to send a bunch of thugs packing. Words are not violence. Calling words violence is the reasoning liberals use to justify censoring.

This man used the minimum amount of force to preserve his rights and those of his congregation. That's why I applaud him.
