The threat or fear of violence should not become an excuse or justification for restricting freedom of speech.

I tell my students, if you ever become comfortable with your role as criminal defense lawyer, it's time to quit. It should be a constant source of discomfort, because you're dealing with incredible moral ambiguity, and you've been cast into a role which is not enviable.

In our criminal justice system, we say it's better for 10 guilty people to go free than for even one innocent person to be wrongly convicted.

Being offended by freedom of speech should never be regarded as a justification for violence.

Well, many insane people and seriously mentally ill people seem very reasonable.

I understand that it's good tactics to categorize me as a close-minded, unobjective extremist, but nobody that respects me has those views.

Any human being has private thoughts.
