to protect our freedoms. All of history rejects the notion.

As for your contortions to carve out a right against offense and consequentially culpability for offense or vice versa, it is inherently restrictive of expression and free speech no matter what nations attempt to legislate such nonsense.

I don't get to wantonly rampage because some fuckwit burned or pissed on or shat upon an object of my reverence or liking. These people where in no danger real or imaginary, nor was any such threat implied.

This act cannot be conflated with a burning cross in a victim's yard, there is no possibility of even an implied threat, there can be no fear instilled, there is no reasonable standard of intimidation.
This is not a reasonable reaction in unreasonable circumstances.
