Some of us argued in here during the 2016 general election about whether or not libertarians and/or pouty Republicans should suck it up and vote for Trump anyway. The effect on the federal courts was always my hammer #1
And so here it is in real life -- In Tam, the Supremes reaffirmed last summer that there is no 'hate speech' exception to the 1st A. Would you agree that this was a timely reminder in light of the anti-speech climate liberals have created? BTW, the decision was unanimous
[The idea that the government may restrict] speech expressing ideas that offend … strikes at the heart of the First Amendment. Speech that demeans on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, disability, or any other similar ground is hateful; but the proudest boast of our free speech jurisprudence is that we protect the freedom to express “the thought that we hate.”
And Kennedy, writing separately --
A law found to discriminate based on viewpoint is an “egregious form of content discrimination,” which is “presumptively unconstitutional.” … A law that can be directed against speech found offensive to some portion of the public can be turned against minority and dissenting views to the detriment of all. The First Amendment does not entrust that power to the government’s benevolence. Instead, our reliance must be on the substantial safeguards of free and open discussion in a democratic society.
