Gee, who gets to define “hate”, Mr. Cardick?
The 1st amendment was written for discussing the weather.
Hate is an important emotional thought which will never be eliminated this side of heaven.
I hate evil. People that try and censor free speech are doing evil.
See how that works?
Aircubed,
Discussion of weather is also restricted by the Left.
If the Left were truthfully called out for their actions, they would be declared the most destructive force in Western History!
Instead they hide behind the disguise of lofty “ideals” to somehow “save the planet” incentivised by our tax dollars!
If you’re shocked by this idea you better catch up. I just read a headline over at TGP that a public library tried to cancel a group of parents who wanted to read a Christian-based book to kids in their own version of “story hour”. Also at TGP, it’s considered racist to tell an obese black woman that she should lose weight. Everyone must know by now that “bigotry” against “transgenders” tops the heap of “hate crimes”; racism (only as it applies to blacks) having slipped into second place for the moment.
As a practical matter — which is where the Left lives — our system of laws and the function of law enforcement now exists primarily to protect and serve only the Left.
For the life of me, I cannot understand how it is there are political prisoners being treated worse than cur dogs in our capitol and people have been charged with insurrection (who weren’t even in D.C. at the time), while Ray Epps has never been in front of the extra-Constitutional “January 6th Committee”.
“Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good. In area after area – crime, education, housing, race relations – the situation has gotten worse after the bright new theories were put into operation. The amazing thing is that this history of failure and disaster has neither discouraged the social engineers nor discredited them.” ~ Thomas Sowell, 2014
….and I am undoubtedly being kept on a list by the FBI for stating my 1A-protected opinions on a blog.
I hate the left. I hate the right. Ah hell I hate everyting & inbetween. Does that cover it?
I refuse to participate or support the delusions of others. While I don’t go out of my way to offend, if you ask me if you are fat I will say you are fat. If a guy says I must refer to him as a female I won’t do it. I will be put in jail befor I would do it. I maintain any physician performing “transition surgery” or administrating hormone drugs for the same purpose should lose his license. Any parent taking their child to drag queen children’s shows or hours should be charged with child abuse. And yes, I am infuriated with what is being promoted in this country by the left. It is destroying the core values of a successful nation.
Sig hiel? Citing Europe as a model? Are you crazy? Flush!
People who support hate speech laws do so as long as they are in agreement with those who define what hate speech is for purposes of enforcing those laws.
Once they say something that those in power do not like, there will be a hue and cry the likes of which you have never heard.
Sorry. That should have been “hew.”
I’d much rather find out that someone is evil by hearing what they say over seeing what they do.
Demanding that evil people be silenced forces them to reveal their evil in more harmful and destructive ways.
Matt, I think you had it right the first time, hue and cry.
The 1st Amendment wasn’t created to protect just “safe speech”.
“I have a degree in law, and I am in the Senate for 30+ years, and I have no understanding of the 1st Amendment”
That’s what he is saying.
The 2nd protects the 1rst asshole. Just keep flapping the Nazi gums old man. The general population will not allow you to turn us into the UK.
@ Ohio Dan,
” It is destroying the core values of a successful nation.”…….
That’s the point!
FJB
That old fuckwad belongs in a rocker on the porch with a shawl on his lap, not in the capitol building.
“Espoused hate”.
He’s talking about how EVERYONE has treated the unvaxxed, right?
