Iran had to turn off the internet. Angela Merkel, formerly assigned the role to distribute East German agitprop (when it was East Germany), proclaims hate speech requires the state to control speech. And here in New Hampshire?
Free Speech
Nashua Democrats, Free Speech, Proper Attribution, and Tyranny
Nashua Democrat Jan Schmidt is the co-sponsor of a proposed bill that would define (presumably) a point where interacting with a public official online becomes cyberstalking or bullying. Jan is no friend of free speech, but she thinks she is and to make the case she borrows someone else’s.
Gilford School Board – October meeting: Powers and Rights (Part 2)
“Mr. Murphy, please submit that question in writing to us…..I have already; twice!

New York County I Grew Up In Votes to Ban “Free Speech”

Racists at SUNY Binghamton?
Students from Young America’s Foundation tabled at Southern University of New York in Binghamton this week. At least until they were run off campus by racists at SUNY Binghamton.

A Bleg – who is the BEST First Amendment Lawyer in NH?

‘It’s Okay to be White’ Flyers Found on College Campus, Police Launch Investigation

Drag Queens Refuse to do Future Events at Library that Featured Anti-Drag Feminist

Eco-Darling Greta Thunberg Should Run as a Democrat for the New Hampshire House
Greta Thunberg, the diminutive eco-fascist, is bent. Facebook won’t censor people who disagree with her on their platform. These expressions are – in her opinion – and this will sound familiar, hate speech.

Free Speech Tolerates Hate Speech
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?
Has the ACLU Jumped It’s Last “Shark?”
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?
Students Arrested: You Can’t Yell Ni**er in an “Empty” Campus Parking Lot
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?

What Some Nitwit Said to Satisfy His Fringy Base

I actually think the NBA line is a little more biting – and true. (H/T: Powerline)
Mini AOC Makes a Comeback – Skewers Pelosi, Biden, Impeachment, Hillary, and More
Back in July, the family of Mini AOC pulled the plug. The left-wing speech police doxxed them off the internet. Removing an inconvenient parody of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her ideology with death threats and promises of in-you farce harassment. But she’s back.
The Left’s Evolution of Intolerance on Marriage
A few years back, the Democrat majority New Hampshire legislature strong-armed its caucus into passing “gay marriage.” No, it did not have the votes on the first pass. It failed. A few people took the day, a few flipped, and we were told no one was going to make churches perform them.
