Y'all talk about free speech. NOT ONCE, did I say he or anyone else is not entitled to expressing his or her opinion. He expressed his opinion/feelings in a public manner, which at that moment made it open for debate. When a person does this, don't be surprised when he or she receives public feedback.
The irony of your argument is that while you are are crying about free speech, you are complaining about those who you view as too negative and you want access to their opinions restricted, or some cases, you want them removed. Remember freedom of speech goes both ways.
At the end of the day, though, what you and I say will not matter. But I do like the ability to be positive, negative or neutral if and when I choose to do so. And when I do, I am not going to apologize for it.
