I could if I wanted to.

If I wanted to use the word "kike" I could. Or "nigger" or "zipper head" of "dago" or any number of derogatory terms referring to a contingent of humanity. Our first amendment allows me this "right" to voice my opinion however I choose. But simply exercising my "right" to hate speech doesn't make it "right." Using these terms to describe people is wrong. The other day I called a man a girl and a cunt. One was a term he used to describe someone and the other was my own dig at his orientation. I was wrong to use those terms regardless of our liberties. This does not, however, change my opinion of this man. He's still despicable.
