Let’s say that you and I were trying to carry on a conversation (in the real world) about some controversial topic, but some extremist kept shouting at us with a bullhorn, because (fundamentally) he felt that even our conversation should not be allowed to take place. There can be no reasoning with him, he will not be swayed.

Wouldn’t you want to be able to withdraw to another room to continue our conversation in peace without his histrionics? In essence, his freedom of speech is overwhelming ours.
