Eh no. They think there's a long, well documented history of abuses against those people and acknowledge that those abuses didn't just fade away — stopping them has taken and will continue to take conscious directed effort against perpetrators of abuse.

The crux of the problem is what it takes to become a "perpetrator of abuse," and we must all be cautious of expanding that group too aggressively.

It's a free country insofar as the government will not put him in jail or otherwise silence him for having those views.

I don't need to put up with those views. He has freedom of speech, but he does not have freedom of venue.

Great, and as it's a free country, it's then perfectly ok to try to get this person fired for those views, right? Or is the freedom limited?

Do whatever you want, but that does not make you a "good guy", just a vindictive weasel.
