I think it is like everything else in life. Moderation is the key. Too much of a good thing is not always a good thing. It's not inconceivable to think of times and places where free speech can cause more harm than good.

The trick is to find the line where you allow freedom of speech to the point where it enhances the citizens lives, but not to the point where the overall society is harmed.
Hey hey hey, no sucking up to the MODERATOR now...

I agree. Freedom is only your freedom until it crosses someone elses. Normal activism is a duty, and one could say those exercising it, are only crossing freedom because theirs has been crossed already. But in this circumstance, he's clearly pushing the bounds of freedom of speech where it's harmful for no purpose.
