The point is not whether Ms. Khan is correct in her views but rather whether her impolite response to the NSYPCs deserves censure. The rationale seems to be that she engaged in conduct which she knew or should have known would cause another to feel demeaned,etc. Goodness, perhaps this comment will do the same. Or if, as an atheist, I post a comment which will be read by someone who sincerely believes in God. Should I not know that it may cause discomfort and thus should be censured for it? Surely, we are all better off allowing a full expression of all opinions. If you think they are outrageous, say so and why.
