I'm totally ok with that. There's a huge difference between free speech and hate speech.

1) Racism in any form, against any group of people, at any time is abhorrent and evil. 2) The tragic events that occurred in Charlottesville, VA last week were detestable and an unfortunate smear against the ideals of our great nation. 3) Freedom of Speech & Expression, for better or worse, within specific legalities, is still a Basic Human Right...Or Is It? You & I Possess the Unique Freedom to Hate Anyone or Anything We Choose. For Whatever Reason. We Can Talk About It. We Can Write About It. We Can Sing Melodies and Set Our Hatred to Music. We Can Build Websites and Blog About It. As Long As Our Hatred does no personal bodily harm, damage to their personal property or space, inflicts terror upon or violates the civil rights of the object of our hatred, we are free to hate as much as we please. We can draw and post despicable images of the most inhumane imaginations conceived. We can sell tickets to presentations of the most vile, disgusting fetishes and impressions. My understanding is that these representations can be on public display, as long as they appear on private property not supported by tax payer dollars (although I am not completely certain of every single detail involved). Conversely, You & I Also Possess the Unique Freedom to Oppose Such Displays of Hatred and Spread Love. We Can Protest, Counter-Protest, Write & Sing Our Own Songs, Blog, Post, Build and Host Our Own Sites, Draw and Sell Tickets to Our Own Shows on Our Own Private Properties and Promote Our Personal Ideologies, Perspectives, Paradigms and Religions to Our Hearts Content. Equally, We Can Change The Channel, Turn Off The Radio, Cancel Subscriptions, Write a Letter to the Editor, Boycott the Service, Go On Strike, Demand a Refund, Quit The Job, Change Careers and Crowdfund. As Long As Our Love does no personal bodily harm, damage to property or space, inflict unnecessary incentive upon or violates the civil rights of the object of our proposed affection, we are free to Love as much as we desire. In Recent News, Spotify and Other Tech Companies have chosen to remove "Hate Music" from their playlists in light of the Charlottesville catastrophe. While I agree, it is indeed their prerogative to take such action, my question is Why Now? Has Reactionary Politically Correct Group Think overtaken each one of these obese organizations simultaneously? What was their stance on such articulation of noted Distasteful Music just two days prior to the Virginia melee? Did Google, Apple, Facebook, LinkedIn and Others Condone or Disdain the Expressions their sites hosted? What About the ultra celebrated, Grammy & Academy Award Winning Hip Hop Artists whose innovations created startling new ways to Rhyme the loathsome "N" Word around intriguing beats while promoting Blatant Misogyny, Violence against their Own Race & others and tremendous Dope Dealing under the glorified banner of 'Thug-Life'? Does their Music Get a Pass? How About the Elder Statesman who raised red flags over the entire record industry by promoting the killing of police officers, (although for the last 30 years, he's played one on TV)? I recall that those who stood to make the most money off the song chose Freedom of Speech as the tent to live in - but, where are those record companies now? I'm not going to pretend I don't get it. As a Follower of Jesus Christ, Black Man, Husband & Father, with my own set of personal conservative convictions, standards and values, it can be very easy to climb into a box or under a label or behind a sign and start marching. But I remain cautiously curious about the boulevard we begin to travel down once we begin to point fingers toward who ought not say 'what', 'when' and 'why', because sooner or later, that road will lead right back to our house...
