The Court can say that protecting offensive speech is necessary for a free marketplace of ideas and democratic self-government: even ugly or unpopular viewpoints help test beliefs, inform public debate, and can lead to truth or reform. It can also stress that allowing the government to ban speech just because it offends would give officials broad censorship power, chill dissent and minority voices, and let subjective standards of offense replace neutral law.
