no. we don't start regulating questionable speech because there are retards that will do stupid things. that's not a road we want to go down. this comfy way of living is a double edged sword.
we take care of those that aren't the 'fittest" for society and in the long run these same people drag the entire society down.

We already do regulate speech that can potentially cause harm. If you don't believe me, board an airplane and start yelling that the people need to rise up and take the plane back.
My guess: You get dragged off the plane and arrested for inciting violence

yes. I know this already. but what is inciteful is very subjective Rob. Where do we draw the line and where does that take us as a people? this isn't an easy fix
