It is firmly settled that under our Constitution the public expression of ideas may not be prohibited merely because the ideas are themselves offensive to some of their hearers.

Yes, I am absolutely guaranteed the right to express my opinion, no matter how unpopular it is. That said, I do NOT have a right to avoid the rebuttals or counter expressions in reaction to it. My right to free expression cannot prohibit anyone else offering an opposing opinion, or even just angry retorts and/or name-calling.
