Your rights end where my feelings begin

A quasi-famous quote from Space Moose where they are trapped in the university's political science department. The author got a lot of hate mail for this and all his slogans.

The line is thought-provoking. It's currently untrue by the first amendment and libel laws in the USA, but some people feel that their free speech rights are being stripped. That was what the author meant, and got flamed for it.

I dunno, I guess the libertarian party would probably say this is the future unless they do something, etc.
