This is a Freedom of Speech issue! Let me just say this: Rush Limbaugh, Pat Robertson, Imus, Bill OReilly,... Shall I go on? They all espouse views that demean, belittle and promote hate towards marginalized groups. And yet they are still on television. Why? Because you cannot deny any one individual or group their constitutional freedoms. Im more concerned about protecting and ensuring the fair and equitable distribution of these rights for all human beings. I do not agree with their views on a lot of issues and I have seen their show. But if we start denying constitutional rights to anyone then we become the monsters we are fighting against and all our good works towards Equality for all and inclusiveness will have been in vain. To silence one person just because you do not like what they have to say or what they believe in is to also silence yourself.
