What a show of recalcitrance. You could probably bring up this issue in conversation and use it as a free speech litmus test. I am reminded of this comment [http://lesswrong.com/lw/kat/the_benefits_of_closedmindedness...]:
2-26% of Americans thinks gay people should not be allowed to speak
3-36% of Americans think that atheists like me (& 79.2% of LW) are better seen than heard
7-49% think militarists should shut up
16-48% of Americans disagree with free speech for racists
16-75% claim Muslims should not be permitted to preach against America
