Some of you need to take a con law class on what exactly is protected as free speech.  Not everything is, especially when it tows the line of inciting violence, which Richard Spencer definitely does.  Whether specific things he has said, like a call for ethnic cleansing, can be debated.  How do you think the government has grounds to arrest people for being suspected ISIS supporters for what they post online or say in public?  It is questionable whether his intent is to incite violence or preach hate speech. I think he is extremely smart and he is very careful in the words he picks in order to stay on the right side of the law, but I am not a judge.

PLUS you can also discriminate against anyone for ANY reason BUT for an illegal reason.  Illegal reason being a suspect or quasi-suspect classification (such as race, religion, gender, national origin, etc.).  The landlord is not obligated to rent to Spencer, his neo-nazi and alt-right beliefs do not qualify as protected classification. [/quote]
