Please respect the freedom of speech of the filmmakers of a great movie, and don't abuse the one thing (Freedom of speech) that allows you to protest the movie, hence trying to prevent the filmmakers from excercising their FoS. In other words, if you don't like it, don't watch it, but don't preach to others not to watch it, because that just makes ppl mad and is not productive.
I'm going to express my opinion that this is a completely moronic statement that, among other logic flas, is self-contradictory. You encourage the respect of freedom of speech, but then you instuct the person exercising that freedom to keep their opinions to themselves because its makes "people mad." Wow.
Of course, "Speech" means you are communicating you ideas, not keeping it to yourself. And as many times as I have read the Constitution, I have yet to find the part that says our right to free speech ends when someone gets mad at our opinion.
I'll leave for later the deficiences in your argument that encouraging a boycott of a movie infringes on the filmmakers freedom of speech.
Peace.
