These "nut cases" are on a mission. They plan larger scale activities in other cities. And they are armed. So should all of the sane people sit silently by?
I agree that the white supremacists have First Amendment rights of speech and assembly. Those rights protect against limitations or restrictions imposed by governmental bodies. Corporations, such as Godaddy, are not governmental entities. Individuals or groups who organize boycotts of advertisers on websites or broadcast outlets who give a platform to the white supremacists are also exercising their right to speak and to assemble. Simply because such groups are competing successfully in the marketplace of ideas does not mean that there has been an interference with First Amendment rights.
