Jack Flanagan’s bill to compel speech had a hearing yesterday and the New Hampshire media rose to the challenge. Jack, based on the reporting, stuck to his guns (that’s a figure of speech), but the Press had their say. HB 1157 violates the first amendment.
In December of 2018, Project Veritas won a significant court battle in Massachusetts. Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 272, § 99 (“Section 99”) placed a chilling effect on first amendment rights. Veritas challenged it and won. So, why are they back in court today?
Most hate crimes are never resolved in the media. They are reported with formula hyperbole until the political feeding frenzy begins. If the loop later closes, the case concludes, these defenders of truth are not there to say that many if not most of them are hoaxes.
BUMPED and UPDATED (from 4/23/18): from the CM at the bottom of this post: In searching for something else (and this happens all the time; go figure, with almost 35K posts in here), this popped up so I decided to add on a bit.
The war on Judeo-Christian faith, like the war on families and marriage, is about knocking down barriers to Marxism. I articulated it well enough here, so I won’t repeat those points. But they apply to this topic. A pastor has been charged with hate speech for preaching near homosexuals.
I don’t care if it is someone on the Left that is a Liberal or on the Right that is a Conservative. All I care about is that their PASSION makes them the BEST defender of our First Amendment Rights in the State. The “why” will come later.
This coin was our first minted coin during colonial times; 1787 to be exact. Do you see what it says? MIND YOUR BUSINESS. The flip side says WE ARE ONE. I wonder how many people actually believe that these days.
It has always been the America position that free speech is an opportunity to enlighten ignorance. Do you think the First Amendment should be rewritten? Do you think it is a good idea to crackdown on free speech, as well as the press?
The ACLU used to be good for something. By which I mean it made some small effort to actually defend bits of the constitution. Like, free speech. But has this last vestige of function been excised by the #Wokeasaurus?
Two University of Connecticut students, peaceably exploring (among themselves) the realm of offensive language, chambered the word ni**er and fired. In an empty parking lot. On-campus. But someone in a nearby dorm heard them. Guess who got arrested?
