I had someone steel this and change “butts” to “Christian” and weirdly enough, lengthen my skirt. Kept the flame boots, but no short skirts.

Too many people would change their minds based on what the sign says.
Does you reaction change if the sign read: "Black Lives Matter" or if it read "Back the Blue"?
Or one that says "Trans women are women" vs "trans women aren't women"?
Or "pineapple on pizza is ok" vs "pinapple on pizza is the work of the devil"?
Honestly, the first thing that I thought about was what if the sign had a slur word. Sure freedom of speech means say what you wanna say, that doesn't mean people aren't gonna sock you in the face.
The problem with free speech is probs that what people are really fighting over is who gets to control and define what "free" speech is. Only in an anarchist society would free speech really be as you described - say what you want, but be prepared to face the consequences of your words (and actions). Without the protection of government and socio/economic hierarchies, bigots wouldn't feel quite as invincible while they spew hate and oppression.
