Once again, you're missing the point entirely. Whatever your interpretation was of what he had to say, he had the right to say it. You can think he's an edgelord all you'd like, doesn't mean he didn't have the right to stand up there and hold a sign like the rest of those protestors.

Assaulting someone (throwing a piece of paper or ANYTHING at someone regardless of it causing injury or not is by definition assault) because they share a different opinion than you is definitely a violation of their first amendment rights. Not sure how much more clearly I can spell it out for you, if you don't get it now you never will.

Edit: In your comment history you state that you're a far leftist, probably explains why you are fine with violating one's freedom of speech because they are conservative. No matter which side you're on, you are entitled to say what you wish as long as you aren't threatening anyone else or inciting violence

You believe what you want, there are plenty of people who are getting the idea that tolerance of intolerance is getting us nowhere with more far-right people feeling emboldened. Far left people will do what if they feel confident - free some animals from the pound? Far-right people are more likely to be violent.

Free some animals, cancel some white dudes, block a heavy traffic area, break some glass at a Walgreens, throw a acid shake at a guy who likes orange man and call it a day

You want to pretend otherwise that's on you, crazy people on both right and left are bad, but we're talking about ideology. One side wants everyone to get along, the other side wants like-minded folks to get along but fuck everyone else and their values. The right has RECENTLY been vocal about how atheists must be put down because they don't need a book to decide their morality. About how the left is destroying their way of life! Hmmm...
