I especially love the people who want to ban hate speech and discussions of violence.
You'd have to start with many of America's founding documents.
The Declaration of Independence has hate speech against Native Americans (not in those polite words, either) and the King of England.
The Common Sense pamphlet is a straight up incitement to armed insurrection.
That is the sort of thing the First Amendment was written for.
