Racist, bigoted, misogynistic, and phobic speech is protected speech. In Brandenburg v. Ohio (1969) the Supreme Court held that speech advocating illegal conduct was protected speech. Speech is not protected when the speaker intends to incite violence, and the speech is designed to produce imminent lawless action, and is likely to do so.
