Well technically there are limits. I mean, you can't speak in a manner that incites a crime to be commited. This is why you can't walk up to a cop and tell him you're going to kill him and just stroll off like nothing happened. I'm all for free speech because, as Noam Chomsky once said, "if you don't believe in freedom of speech for the speech you don't like, you don't believe in it at all". I just also happen to realize that there is a time and place for everything. That time and place is generally not on national television in front of a bunch of people who think you're some kind of holy man.
