Two men are what looks like on a college campus. One of the men is holding a sign, the other man is just standing there.
Student walks up, read the sign, freaks out, tries to take the sign.
Before the student can get his hands on the sign, the other man pushes the kid away. Screaming follows with a few punches thrown.

Kid goes after the sign again. Man pushes kid away, again more screaming.
Security finally shows up and escorts kid away.
One comment I find particularity disturbing, the kid screams "your sign is offensive." This goes along with the college professor who took the pro-life protestors sign and assaulted the young lady.
In this nation we have freedom of speech and freedom of religion.
We do not have a right "not" to be offended. It seems to me that people think since they are offended they should be able to assault the protestor?
Just because someone is offended does not give them special rights. I think with our sense of entitlement, people think they have a right not to be offended. If they are offended, they can inflict physical abuse upon the other person.
Thoughts?
