171. What? Once someone expresses his opinion, no one can express an opinion about his opinion and his
practices?

His business practices stink. Going out of his way to protect health insurance companies despite their greed and inhumanity stinks. I get to express my opinion about both by boycotting his stores. Boycotts are economic speech.

People are allowed to express their opinions without resprisal from government. No one ever promised them they would not piss off their customers if they went out of their way to express an opinion contrary to that almost 80% of Americans. Actions, including speech, often have consequences.

Why are you able to see only one side of that quid pro quo?
