People who have a political point of view have every right to say it. No matter how vile this political belief may be, telling them they can not have it is thought control, and denotes discussion. Telling the country that the Westboro Baptist Church should not be allowed to to speak their point of view means that we can’t discuss with them or anyone that belief. If ideas aren’t thoroughly discussed, then people can’t make informed opinions on them.

I do agree that everyone should have a freedom of speech. Everyone has their own point of view and opinion regarding everything and they should be free enough to say it. But of course since it's an opinion, it should be treated as one. It would be different if you express your opinion as if it were a fact. The way we express it is also important. People might have their own opinion, but if our opinion is different than others, we should be humble enough to accept it and not try to attack or intimidate them. People might have different opinion, but we still need to respect each other.
