isn't that what charlottesville was about? people responded to what was being said in a natural, normal reaction. doesn't the government have some right but obligation to deal with something like that? those are the hard questions. which value is more important? hate speech under the guise of free speech or preventing civil disorder? i think that's something. jamal: i wanted to bring in someone as well. >> what i think is interesting is there are clearly areas of living we have chosen as a society that we will regulate speech and. that's what are anti-discrimination is based on. we decided in the area of employment, we will regulate speech. if there is a housing provider relationship, we will regulate speech. where a customer is working at a public accommodation or business, we are going to regulate hate speech. that is what most people would think as competing good public policy reasons, allowing people to live in these spaces, these very basic spaces of life free from discrimination or harassment. what i think is interesting
