reasonable expectation of freedom of speach incl. insults w/o getting killed for it.

I'm not saying Spaide didn't overreact, but the Goys should have known better. This is a Marcellus Wallace-Tony Rockyhara moment...
“If you step out of here, I’ll knock your a-- out,” James Goy told the suspected gunman, as seen in the video of the encounter obtained by The New York Post.
James Goy then threatened to make Spaide’s life a “living hell” and called him a “d--khead,” as heard on the recording.
“What?” Spaide replied. “F--k you, you f--king scum.”
Goy’s spouse, who is seen holding a shovel in the footage, then showered Spaide with a flurry of curse words.
“You’re the f--king scumbag,” Lisa Goy yelled to him. “You don’t know how to talk to somebody.”
James Goy then flipped Spaide off.
“That’s right...You’re a pu--y, pu--y, pu--y,” he is heard yelling.
In the footage of the incident, Spaide is then seen approaching Lisa Goy, who tells him “go ahead, go ahead.” Upon seeing his weapon, her husband tells him “put the gun down.”
Spaide then fired multiple rounds, striking both him and his wife, ABC News reported.
“Call the cops!” Lisa Goy is heard crying out, then yelling at Spaide, “You f--ker, you!”
Spaide then returned to his home, extracted a second, larger rifle, and returned to gun down Lisa Goy.
“You should have kept your f--king mouth [shut],” he told her before pulling the trigger."
The Goys, with these words, are not themselves reasonable people.
