While no one can condone the ugliness of this young mans remarks, I find the *implications* for 'free speech' of this decision troubling. Who gets to determine what are "reasonable views"? It would seem one judge in this instance. Perhaps other judges might find other views 'unreasonable'? Who gets to decide which views are "reasonable" enough to be publicly expressed?
