its one of those “I don’t know where the line is but I know it when I see it” things, but with some easy math. Given our rights should stop only when it can risk someone else’s life or liberty, does the speech in question go past that?

But will even that decide whether there’s a difference between a zygote and a tumour? Will it prioritize the person or what may one day become one? Will it take responsibility for dying in a controlled fashion when there is no future due to terminal illness, a non-viable body or an unredeemable crime?
