They have as much of a right to speak as I have to ignore them. When my right to ignore them is taken away, I have a problem with that.

  Put on some headphones. There, your rights are no longer being infringed! One citizen doesn't have a greater "right" over a public space than another. The frequent abuse of the term kills me.

  "Ignore" is just not paying attention. You are free to do so. No one is taking that right away.

    When protesters block the freeway he's on, he no longer has the ability to not pay attention to them. They have, in fact, taken that away from him. I even think that's precisely why the protesters do it.

  We agree that people do not have a right to not be offended, right?
