Let me just preempt all the people who are going to comment about "free speech".

Free speech is about government control. It does not mean that citizens cannot react to your speech. In this instance, citizens reacted. Then the store made their decision, which they were free to do or not. That is all. No one lost their free speech.

Spencer's exercised their "free speech," and consumers did, too.
