"The racial slur – “fucking nigger” – that Mr. Liebenguth directed at the law enforcement officer here is no less offensive than the other highly personal and offensive insults that the Court has held that the First Amendment protects. See, e.g., Brown v. Oklahoma, 408 U.S. 914 (1972) (summarily reversing a conviction for a man calling police officers “Mother-fucking fascist pig cops” in a church at the University of Tulsa) facts in lower court opinion, Brown v. State, 492 P.2d 1106, 1108 (1971). The Connecticut Supreme Court, however, ignored this Court’s precedents and crafted a decision based on its distaste for the racial slur and its history in America."
