You can't send death threats to public officials.

You can't make violent threats against people on the street.

You can't sexually harass your employees or co-workers.

You can't incite a riot.

Can we extend this to criticism of the government? It harms the dignity of the state and interferes with its smooth operation. No sane citizen would object to that, assuming that I can define everybody who disagrees with my position as insane.
