"The nation's commitment to the principle of free expression," according to Jeffrey M. McCall, "is today on the verge of unraveling, as too many Americans seek to shut up the people and stifle the ideas that don't suit them. Such antagonism to respecting free expression rights of fellow citizens explains the uncivil and polarized tone that dominates the nation's public sphere."
