"Conservatives" clearly have no clue when it comes to the issue of free speech.

Free speech doesn't mean you can slander or defame anyone you don't like, and expect there to be no consequences. People you baselessly accuse of crimes, for example, will fight back, and it should be pointed out that there are defamation and libel laws, and they exist for a reason.
Free speech has never been without legal restraints. You can't scream there's a bomb on board a crowded aeroplane just for laughs; you will be arrested upon touchdown.
To all those whiny "conservatives" out there who like to grumble about restrictions being placed upon free speech, I simply say keep on crying, because I fully support such restrictions, and the next time you have the audacity, the sheer gall, to accuse someone you don't like of (for example) being in support of child abuse, consider yourself to be lucky if all you receive in return is a punch to the face.

Your quotes are really the key. Many who call themselves Conservatives are essentially Limbaugh style dittoheads with little or no education who appreciate the hostility and contempt for others much more than they actually want to conserve anything.

1776 isn't far enough back from them to regress. They really seem to want to go past Jesus' Golden Rule to a time when might makes right and anyone who spoke up against the King could get his head chopped off in a public spectacle for the mob to enjoy.
