The dictum is that the cure to bad speech is not to prohibit it, but to have more speech. That dictum is imperfect, but a culture of "one side only" is part of what kept the problem dark. Do you want to defend John K.? Make your case. Keep it civil. Do not be threatening. And don't expect anyone to agree with you. But I don't think you should be silenced for just being on what I think is the obvious wrong side of this.
