We’re the Only Ones Unsigning Enough

“Friend was violating no law by standing on the sidewalk and displaying his sign, and [Police Sgt. Richard] Gasparino had no lawful reason to order him to desist from that conduct,” the appeals court ruled. [More]

If he wanted to engage in police-approved speech in Stamford, he should have become a paid gunsnitch.

That said, it’s probably unfair for me to judge Sgt. Gasparino until I’ve goose-stepped a mile in his jackboots.

Kinda helps explain why Connecticut is so hot for unending citizen disarmament schemes…

For the Female of the Species is More Deadly than the Male*

Female Faculty More Likely to Support Speech Restrictions, Campus Investigations, Deplatforming [More]

They’re also more likely to be red-shirted cows, ignorant of what can happen when those they’re enabling decide it’s time to take off the mask.

Wrong Thinking is Punishable

“Under Washington state law, residents will now be classified as domestic terrorists if they protest school board meetings, Drag Queen Story Hour Events, and the outcome of elections… These include being anti-mask, anti-vaccine, anti-critical race theory, questioning election results, and calling the LGBTQ community “groomers.” [More]

I’m not getting Minority Report analogy from this so much as a Keepers vibe…

It’s Not Like the Bill of Rights was Meant for the People…

The ruling is major for many reasons, including that the government tried to claim that charter boat fishing is a “closely-regulated industry” to which the Fourth Amendment does not apply. [More]

Ah, the Scarborough Doctrine of authorized free speech exercisers…

And don’t forget Hogg’s Resurrected Postulate…

Keep Your Shirt On

The complaint alleges that in Sept. 2022, just two days after A.B.’s teacher, Tom Griffin, covered students’ free speech rights in government class, A.B. was suspended from school for wearing a shirt that said “What part of ‘shall not be infringed’ do you not understand?” and featured an image of a rifle. [More]

Actually, this whole business of compulsory public education seems ripe for Bill of Rights challenges. The government, instituted among men to secure the Blessings of Liberty, is teaching our Posterity to be suspects and inmates, whose bodies are the property of the state, rather than sovereign Citizens.

And ol’ Tom sounds like a real piece of…work.

Only Racists Think the First Amendment Applies to Individuals Anyway

Democrat Introduces Legislation to Make White People Criticizing Minorities a Federal Crime [More]

And it’s as heavy as 10 boxes!

We won’t even be able to discuss “mythical falsehoods such as ‘replacement theory.’”

Does this mean I won’t be able to say her constituents are even stupider than she is?

‘…No Law Respecting the Establishment of Religion…’

All-Muslim city council in Detroit suburb approves animal sacrifices at home [More]

And PETA’s not freaking out and bussing in raging cat ladies…? Hell, they’re not even mentioning it.

Kinda like the way the LGBTQ radical brigades kept it zipped when Muslim cab drivers went all homophobic in Cleveland…?

I guess this tells us which weaponized “cause” the destroyers find more effective. And we’re getting a preview of which idiots will be expendable first once they’re no longer useful.

Case in point: If the choice is between environmentalcases and “immigrants,” guess who gets priority and why, and for how long.

When you control a monopoly of violence, useless eaters aren’t that insurmountable a problem.

Speak, Friend, and Enter

The Arizona legislature is now in session and AzCDL will soon be sending out Action Alerts regarding important bills that will be heard in committee. The Request to Speak (RTS) system is one of the most effective ways to let your voice be heard in the legislature! [More]

Like the anthem says, “lift every voice”…

When Everything Looks Like a Nail

Sen. Marco Rubio, R-FL., on Tuesday introduced bipartisan legislation that would ban the popular app TikTok from operating within the United States over national security concerns. [More]

What (or who) else could they assign themselves authority to hammer after citing such concerns?

Authorized Opinions

The eleventh chapter of The Road to Serfdom is entitled “The End of Truth,” about the historical imperative in all totalitarian states throughout history to destroy freedom of speech so that the only true belief is “the social plan” imposed by the state, whatever that may be. This is achieved by relentless institutionalized lying and propaganda, coupled with harsh censorship of all contrary ideas or even questions about the propriety of forcefully imposing one single “social plan.” [More]

What kind of fascist wouldn’t want that?

Schiff Happens

By publicly pressuring Musk to censor “hate speech,” which is indisputably covered by the First Amendment, Schiff and Takano are trying to indirectly accomplish something that the Constitution forbids. [More]

Well, it also says “shall not be infringed, but that’s never stopped either of these @$$holes.

Not Monkeying Around

Musk’s Neuralink faces federal probe, employee backlash over animal tests [More]

The obvious intent here is to destroy the man for allowing unapproved speech and to divert the conversation away from Hunter.

So naturally, leave it to The French Mistake to take point for the left-enabling Vichycons and “not understand” collusion and marching orders.

MAJOR 2A CALIFORNIA COURT VICTORY: Critical Win for Gun Rights Supporters TODAY [Watch]

California’s tyrannical attempt to stifle peaceful revolution by economically coercing against petitioning government for redress of grievances gets set back by Judge Benitez.

I didn’t find announcements on SAF, FPC, and Ninth Circuit websites yet, and nothing yet on a news search, so Mark W. Smith has the scoop.

Rob Bonta really is evil.
