lol, i was pretty intoxicated at that point, so my bad for losing track

but yea. i could see it not changing anything in terms of motivation to commit terrorism, if i'm being perfectly honest, but i could also see backing down to appease them changing very little as well since once these things get rolling they tend to gain a momentum of their own. that's all a bit of guesswork. but in all honesty, i'd much rather at least we didn't compromise our own ideals in the process of dealing with these thugs. i honestly don't see the point in us even having free speech if we are willing to squelch it every time a group of people start threatening us with violence.
