  5. Although that is technically correct, on The Dangers Of Protecting Free Speech · · Score: 1

    I, as an atheist, am a bit bothered at being thrown in with those other groups. Atheists are not hate-mongering bigots like the rest of the organizations you named. I have no idea if you were implying that or not, but I am willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you only meant to list groups that attract violent opposition. Please, be careful of your phrasing in the future.
