My point was that typically, a leftish person will complain about their first amendment rights , without truly understanding or knowing the constitution. Which seems to be the case here, and it seems you agree with that analysis.
I disagree - it's most often rightwingers that climb on this bandwagon, even political so-called leaders who should know better. Witness Sarah Palin in this exchange:

Well, they're not saying "stop criticizing people who sell real estate," they're saying "stop the (alleged) incorrect use of our trademark." Maybe one of your readers is a trademark attorney who could give you some advice. One option might be to add the following disclaimer at the bottom of your webpage: "Realtor is a registered trademark of the National Association of Realtors. Patrick.net is in no way affiliated with the NAR." and consider using the ® at least in the banner. That way you could say "Look, I'm using it as you have requested, even though I think it is generic! I'm even attributing it to your organization so there's no confusion!"
Anyhow, you really need competent legal advice. Identifying them specifically in that way might have other consequences.
