Well duh. Of course it is freedom of speech. Unless someone had a gun to his head and forced him to do it
We are all entitled to say what the hell we want. Every single human being. That doesn't mean what we say is always right or acceptable. The remarks he put can actually get you in trouble with the law. And if you were a lawyer arguing his case and you said "my client said these things because it's freedom of speech on his own personal twitter", you would be laughed out the court room. The freedom of speech defence is one of the most pathetic excuses people use.
Anyone who makes excuses for comments like this said is as bad as them as far as i am concerned
