If it isn't abundantly clear yet, then this clip of Facebook Oversight board member, and Fmr Danish PM, Helle Thorning-Schmidt, should do the job.
Got it? She and the entire Left doesn't think anyone has the right to say anything, that freedom of speech is not absolute! It's no wonder countless people, like yours truly, have been silenced on Facebook and social media.
Thorning-Schmidt, like all Leftists despises people truly expressing themselves when it goes against the hive mind. They also completely and totally HATE the US Constitution, because they know it's a charter of NEGATIVE liberties (like obama said) restricting govt and those in power, like Big Tech, from doing what they'd really like to do to ALL OF US!
Look at how the Left is treating Americans right now when we have the right to keep and bare arms... imagine what they would be doing to us if we didn't have that right!!
Democrats are fascist tyrants, even up and coming ones like Rep Alexandra Oc... AOC. While speaking at a town hall event the freshman socialist, who is now running the democrat party, got into a heated exchange with a free speech activist that lead her staff to cut his mic over what else a debate on free speech!
These tyrants are all in favor of the Constitution, they'll invoke it at every opportunity so long as it's on their side. When things don't go their way, to hell with the Bill of Rights and that dusty document written by those dead, old, racist, white men.
After the man called her out for cutting his mic, going so far as to call her a fascist, AOC told her staff to not cut his mic so she knew what they were doing. This is what socialists do, standing ready with their finger on the button to silence dissent.
This is America's future if the democrat party is not reigned in. They are progressives all right, progressively getting worse by the day with power grabs, censoring conservatives over their goal to fundamentally transform the USA. AOC is at the forefront of this movement old school democrats are getting behind because they FEAR her and this new generation of unhinged violent Leftists will destroy them if they don't toe the line. That ladies and gents should scare the hell out of everyone on both sides of the aisle!
On the issue of yelling fire in a theater, while I'm not 100% sure, I believe it's actually a myth that yelling fire in a crowded theater is actually a crime (I'll do some research on it).
This from The Atlantic, "those who quote [Justice] Holmes might want to actually read the case where the phrase originated before using it as their main defense. If they did, they'd realize it was never binding law, and the underlying case, U.S. v. Schenck, is not only one of the most odious free speech decisions in the Court's history, but was overturned over 40 years ago."
People need to know "hate speech" is not illegal, and IS protected under the First Amendment, otherwise what's the purpose in having 1A!?
Megyn Kelly put Leftist radical Richard Fowler in his place (whose argument is that of all Leftists seeking to silence dissent is based on feelings) on this very issue when the Draw Muhammad event was making libs heads explode following the attack over the event in Garland, Texas...
If THIS ⬆️ Megyn Kelly was still around and had the opportunity to interview AOC, you can be sure the little socialist tyrant would not be happy afterwords.
Juan Williams just doesn't know when to stop when it comes to arguing with Pamela Geller about radical islam. Once again Geller puts this progressive islamic appeaser in his place over our right to free speech. Geller nailed it when she asked Williams, who found the segment laughable, "whats next" if her ads with the winning drawing are censored. Williams is so blinded by his own fear he cannot see the silence he wants on Geller or anyone who goes against radical islam is in fact surrender to the jihadists and enforcement of sharia law! There is nothing inciting about the winning drawing from her Draw Muhammad contest is not insightful and actually is the truth.
The only ones who are offended or incited by these stupid drawings are the blood thirsty killers and monsters, like cleric Anjem Choudary, who want a global caliphate with everyone living under sharia. There is no middle ground with these monsters they will kill you for talking down about their "god".
Those who attack Geller and her free speech rights have no clue the win they're giving to radical islam. Dopes like Williams aren't helping or sparing us from violence they're in fact emboldening the killers to do more because they show people are prepared to give in to the religion of peacesubmission!
The First Amendment wasn't established to protect the things people say that everyone agrees with. The Founders gave it to us to allow the most controversial, heated and even offensive things to be said. Pam Gellers "Draw Muhammad" event was a private event and they had as much right to organize as those who gather condemning Americans who are anti-islam. Participants in the contest and attendees were not asking to be attacked and anyone (crap media) even suggesting such a thing have proven they are anti-American. You have a right to say whatever is on your mind freely without being threatened in the US. This attack and those more or less siding with the attackers are enemies to the Republic.
That is the real story with this terror attack that was thwarted by Garland TX police. American freedoms are under attack not only from ISIS scumbags but by "Americans" who after the last 24+ hours side with them! Yes Alisyn Camerota I'm talking about you and all the other idgets in the crap media who are attacking Gellar and anyone else who says whats on their minds that you find offensive. This ex-Fox anchor demonstrates how quickly she will go from a conservative viewpoint to a radical leftist depending on who is signing her check! Progs like this don't care about America, they couldn't careless about the freedoms we have and are ready to give them away.
One last thing how about we give thanks to the officer who dropped the scumbag ISIS lone wolves, armed with AK-47's, with his service pistol!? Next to nothing has been said about his courage and the fact that he ended a potential blood bath in 15 seconds!
The reason topics like gay marriage controversy and others are covered on STR is to put light on the growing threat of liberty and freedom from radical secular leftists/ liberals/ progressives. They are actively engaged in fascism in this country forcing individuals and corporations to submit to their ways or be literally destroyed. The left is all in favor of the First Amendment as long as you agree with their views, if not you are fair game! The vicious unrelenting attacks the left will engage in against ANYONE who doesn't submit to what they want is getting worse by the day. These modern day fascists will go after your business, job, family, reputation if you defy them.
These hypocrites once upon a time would claim they were champions of speaking out against govt and those infringing on peoples rights, but look at them now. Now they want big government in every aspect of our lives, they will do everything possible to silence dissent especially those whose dissent is based on religious beliefs. If the left had their way religion would be banned in this country which would also open the door to reinterpretation of the Constitution since it is based on Christian-Judea beliefs. That of course is the end goal for the radical left if you haven't figured it out yet.
Destroy mans relationship with God, then they can destroy the biggest thorn in their side, Constitution, to fundamentally transform America.
Freedom of religion and speech only applies when you are in lockstep with the intolerant "tolerant" left! Memories Pizza of South Bend IN said they would serve gays but not cater gay weddings over their Christian beliefs. The left as usual went on full attack mode claiming they were refusing to serve gays where one HS coach even threatened to burn their business down.
Thankfully that coach has been suspended but co-owner Crystal O'Connor told Dana Loesch they may not be able to open their doors because of their support for Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA).
[Loesch has set up GoFundMe account to help the O'Connor's out since they don't know how long they will have to keep their doors closed]
Who is to blame for this? The media as usual who took the O'Connor's words out of context which more or less was like throwing gasoline on a fire! The media is corrupt and rotten to the core, never taking responsibility for the trouble they cause. Look at what the media did to Ferguson MO, stoking the fires for ratings! Because of the media Ferguson is a wasteland and because of the media police officers across the US have been ambushed but no one will hold them accountable. Now this Christian owned family business is under threat for expressing their opinion! Seriously? This is the fundamental transformation obama promised he was bringing.
America it is time to stop being nice with the left. You want to turn the other cheek to people who would slit your throat at the first opportunity! I have been saying this for a long time but the longer you sit down and shut up over fear from the left the more freedom you lose and power you give them. The shocking part about this is it's always a handful of radicals who make enough noise to sound like the 800lb gorilla in the room when they are just a small mouse! Stand up to them fight back!
Leave it to a progressive like fmr Gov Howard Dean to dismiss radical islams role in the French terror attack. The terrorists heard saying allahu akbar and the prophet is avenged have no weight to radicals like Dean.
At this point terrorists could be dressed up in 14th century islamic garb be carrying the Koran in one hand and saber in the other killing people in the name of allah screaming allahu akbar and progs like Dean will still say they are not muslim extremists! To be this dismissive when it is so blatantly obvious is dangerous. It will only empower islamic radicals to do more because radicals like Dean will never call them out. Why is the fmr gov so quick to dismiss islams role in this attack? Whether it is him, regime members or the media many are quick to plant seed of doubt or give islamic radicals an escape hatch. They do it out of fear because they know if they speak out of line they might be next. So a clown like Dean thinks that if he doesn't condemn the death cult he will be safe, when in reality he doesn't understand if jihadis ever have the opportunity they take his head off!
It's Ted Cruz so I don't have much to say about his performance here! Cruz is one of the few rebels in DC left looking out for us. The man speaks the truth, he warned this attack to the Constitution was coming!
What I will say on this amendment is this: Anyone who supports it is a full on communist who wants to destroy the US. This proposed amendment like all cooked up by progressives aka patient communists will be weaponized against the people, not just big billionaire donors, to silence free speech for everyone!
The crap media of course will be protected to continue pushing their propaganda while this amendment destroys free political speech. You and I will be silenced because a group of bureaucrats will determine who can and cannot speak politically! All you unions, liberal driven groups and bloggers you too will be silenced! This amendment presented by Sens Udall, Schumer, Harkin etc supported by 41 communists is a direct assault on our freedom to speak out against this regime and corrupt Congress. Do not fall for the lies that it will allow a level playing field.
Senate communists and those supporting this amendment fear the American people because in this technological day and age. We the people push out information progressives cannot control so they want to silence us while controlling the flow of information through the media, already in their pocket. SJ 19 is a direct assault on freedom by those who genuinely hate the Constitution and this country.
Ted Cruz one of the few rebels left in DC fighting for the American people warns Chuck Schumer and 41 degenerate demoncrats infesting the US Senate plan amend and repeal the First Amendment. Under the cloak of "...raising and spending of money and in-kind equivalents with respect to Federal elections..." said bill will allow Congress to regulate political speech! Of course these monsters in the Senate will structure this amendment to not infringe on freedom of the press. No no they will protect the crap media that is in their back pocket where outlets like the New York Times and similar will be protected. However freedom of speech and religious liberty for you and I will be "muzzled"!
“What it says is that politicians in Washington have unlimited constitutional authority to muzzle each and every one of you if you’re saying things the government finds inconvenient.”
The Republic is under full distress and those charged with its protection who swore "I will protect and defend the Constitution of the United States..." clearly have no intentions of living up to this oath. Those of you in the military who took a similar oath what are you waiting for?
Every month goes by more of our freedoms are trampled on and taken away, while those in charge bury us in massive debt, slowly chipping away at the core of the US doing the work of our enemies. You would have no problem engaging a foreign enemy who would be doing all this damage to the US yet when it is your own people you ignore it! Why do those of you in the military & top brass sit back and do nothing?
These attacks towards commencement speakers is out of control because NO ONE has stood up to the MINORITY TYRANT AUTHORITARIAN FASCISTS that whine and complain about whomever is invited to speak at graduation ceremonies. These monsters cry out how offensive it is to have Condi Rice or some other republican/ conservative speaker but what about the graduates and faculty who want these people to speak?
First off WHY are the graduates and faculty silent? It should be obvious by now, the left has successfully instilled fear into anyone who objects. They have viciously attacked and vilified anyone who goes against them so now people just assume they are next is they object. The party of tolerance is intolerant to anyone who is not onboard with their radical destructive agenda. What people cease to understand though is by giving into this fear Americans have only emboldened radical leftists. Because of this complicity we are seeing these attacks completely out of control now! Why can't people see it is a small minority that is against these speakers? Every single time a college or university gives in to these very small groups protesting they give way more freedom! This complicity is creating a nation where you can no longer say whats on your mind or have guest speakers because a handful of people will be offended.
Again I will ask when did the needs of the few or the one outweigh the needs of many?
This horrible citizen, a concerned father, is guilty of disorderly conduct for objecting to the pornographic material in a book his 14-year-old daughter, Marina, was required to read. The hardened thought criminal, William Baer, tells Megyn Kelly he went over his two minute limit to speak where afterwards he was expected to shut up and be quiet like the other sheople attending the school board meeting. You see in the Gilford NH school district the rule is you have ONLY 2 minutes to speak, imposed by board chairman Sue Allen, and there are no questions or answer during the school board meeting. But because he was concerned for his daughter, and one can assume other teens, welfare for being exposed to borderline adult "X-rated" material he continued to speak out. The school board got their in-house stormtrooper to remove Baer while the sheople sat with their heads down.
I waited to post on this video...
because I wanted to hear the fathers story. That said I will now say my peace...
There is a lot of anger over how William Baer was treated but I would like to direct the attention of this disgraceful event on the parents & others attending the board of education meeting. First off Marina Baer is 100% correct when she scolds the school board members and meeting attendees for how her father was treated. I wouldn't trust one person in that room who would resort to having someone silenced and arrested. I also would not trust any of the attendees because not one person stood up and spoke out in that room in Baer's defense while he was carted out by the stormtrooper. Watch the video again and look at them! Look at how they sit there, some with their heads down, others not even looking in his direction, one guy was very eager to be called on to speak!
What in the blue hell is wrong with people? To be silent is to speak! These people are complicit with this uncalled for abuse of power. It is a board of education meeting not the US Supreme Court! Listen to what Baer tells Kelly again that the principal, Peter Sawyer, didn't want to hear the extremely graphic and violent content in the book!
As for the stormtrooper SHAME ON YOU! Arresting a man for violating a 2 minute rule expressing his freedom of speech over a legitimate issue is deplorable. Baer at no time was resisting arrest yet the stormtrooper connoted to push him, as if it was an attempt to get William to react so harsh force could be used! The cop should turn his badge in because I guarantee you this is the kind of cop who has no problem abusing the powers delegated to him. This is the type of cop I have featured on STR thinking they are above the law.
I hope Baer gets himself a good liberal attorney! Yea that's right I said a liberal attorney they love this stuff so why not find one and press charges against the board of education and the cop for malicious prosecution! The only way these abuses of power will stop is by 1) exposing those behind it 2) lawsuits, very expensive high-profile lawsuits against your accusers! When people silencing others or abusing their power have to start shelling out large settlements they will learn their lesson! 3) in this case Mr Baer or anyone feeling the same as him should get on the board of education. Get on the school boards and start changing them from within. That goes for Common Core, you want to stop it get involved get on the school board or elect people of like minds who will put a stop to this insanity.
America it all comes down to simple question: What are you prepared to do? If you want to sit around and wait for someone else to come along and do something you are going to be waiting for a long time. You have to get active and engage the left on their own turf.if that means getting arrested then so be it!
