No doubt he is annoying just like my neighbor who cranks up his stereo at night. Doesn't mean I get to take matters into my own hand. Or how about if you stiff me on a bill? I shouldn't be allowed to take my frustration out on you, regardless of what I think the courts will do.

I can disagree with someone without calling them names.
Sibrel called Aldrin names.
I can say, " Mr Aldrin, I don't believe you really walked on the moon. Prove it to me." Aldrin can say " Go away" " I decline" etc. Aldrin is not required by anyone to swear on a Bible that he walked on the moon.
So does that give me the right to insult Aldrin and to call him a coward and a liar?
I think not.
It's the difference between addressing the issue vs attacking the person. When you attack a person, whoever they are, you are assaulting them.
